TOMATO CHICKEN RICE SOUP

This is a soup my mom used to make for me any time I caught a cold. She used to call it French Canadian penicillin (she was 100% French Canadian).

Okay, so I'm looking at my pantry which is all but bare and my wallet which looks a helluva lot like my pantry and thinking, "Okay... how the hell am I gonna pull this one off?" Well, this is how.

Categories     Chicken Thigh & Leg

Time 7h10m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 chicken leg quarters, split
2 small onions, diced (or one medium onion)
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 (10 ounce) cans tomato soup (can substitute a can of any sort of tomatoes, just make sure they're good and mashed up)
1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10 ounce) can milk (if you don't have any milk, it's cool, water works good, too)
0.5 (10 ounce) can water
1 tablespoon dry sherry
5 teaspoons Frank's red hot sauce (Frank's cooks up the best when flavor, not spice is the key, substiture your own favorite)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
5 tablespoons butter
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Saute onions and garlic with oregano in 1 tablespoons butter in a wide pan. When onions have browned, remove and set aside.
  • Rinse and pat chicken dry. Split the quarters and salt and pepper each side.
  • Brown the halved chicken quarters in same pan. It'll probably take two batches, use 2 tablespoons butter per batch.
  • Leaving the excess butter in the pan, put the onions and garlic back in the pan, along with the soups, milk, water and 1 tablespoons dry sherry and bring to a rapid simmer (I dunno what to call it, but it's the time just before a slow boil, when all the bubbles are rolling around but not popping out of the pan like if it's boiling). Whisk a lot while it's heating up, getting all those yummy bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Reduce heat to medium or medium-low and start adding your hot sauce 1 teaspoons at a time until it tastes just right (5 shakes = roughly a tsp.). Salt and pepper to taste, keeping in mind that most hot sauces have a lot of salt in them already.
  • Put chicken and sauce in crockpot on Low for 6 to 7 hours.

PRESSURE COOKER CHICKEN TORTELLINI TOMATO SOUP



Pressure Cooker Chicken Tortellini Tomato Soup image

This comforting soup is a one-pot meal-in-a-bowl. The key to its deliciousness is the way in which the pressure cooker makes the soup taste as though it's been simmered for hours when, in fact, it's been only about 30 minutes. (You could also make the slow-cooker version of this recipe, if time is on your side.) Quick-cooking baby spinach works beautifully, but you can choose a different green if you prefer: If you use a heartier green, like chopped kale or chard, give it a few more minutes to get tender before adding the tortellini. If you're planning for leftovers, add only the tortellini you will eat right away. Left in the soup, they will overcook. Be generous with toppings; they make the soup even more delicious.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons tomato paste
4 cups chicken stock or broth
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, preferably fire roasted
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, preferably aged
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Roughly chopped leaves from 3 to 4 sprigs fresh oregano (about 2 tablespoons chopped) or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as necessary
1 3/4 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
5 ounces baby spinach
1 (8- to 10-ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
1 cup grated Parmesan, for serving
Torn or shredded fresh basil, for serving
Black pepper, for serving

Steps:

  • In a 6- or 8-quart electric pressure cooker, whisk together the tomato paste, stock and wine until the paste dissolves. Stir in the tomatoes, vinegar, garlic, oregano, onion powder, red-pepper flakes and salt. (If you are using unsalted stock, add an additional 1/2 teaspoon salt.) Add the chicken thighs and stir to evenly combine all the ingredients. Close the lid and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
  • Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes, then release remaining pressure manually. Open the lid. Turn on the sauté setting. If you would like a thicker soup (adding Parmesan at the end will thicken the soup as well), remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and allow the soup to bubble until the desired texture is reached, then stir the chicken back in. Stir in the spinach so that it wilts into the soup. Coarsely shred the chicken with two forks, pressing pieces of chicken against the side of the pot to break the thighs apart.
  • Stir in the tortellini and cook until they are al dente and warmed through, about 3 minutes. Taste the soup and add salt if it tastes flat. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with Parmesan, basil and black pepper.

SPICY CHICKEN TOMATO SOUP



Spicy Chicken Tomato Soup image

I love soup; nothing helps warm your body and soul on a cold Winter's day like a good bowl of homemade (made with love) soup. And, although, as I pen these words, we are still in the grips of Summer, I know that it won't be long before Autumn will sweep over the land. When that happens, the temperatures will drop, and the...

Categories     Other Main Dishes

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 c chicken stock, freshly made
3 c chicken (white & dark meat) about 2 pounds
10 oz tomato puree
1 1/2 lb tomatoes, blanched, peeled, and diced
1/2 medium onion, finely diced, about 4 ounces
1/4 c long grain rice, uncooked
8 oz white button mushrooms, sliced thinly, about 8 ounces
2 clove garlic, minced, about 1/4 ounce
2 medium carrots, sliced on the bias, 1/4 thick, about 6 ounces
2 medium celery stalks, sliced on the bias 1/4 thick, about 2 ounces
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp table salt, or 2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed, 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • 1. It's a cold day... low grey cloud move quickly overhead, carrying with them the promise of more snow to come. The wind moans though trees devoid of leaves, and the cold empty branches crackle in the cold Winter's breath. The days grow shorter, and the nights longer. It's Winter, and it's time for warm comfort foods... It's time for hearty soup. Let's get started...
  • 2. Place the chicken stock in a pan, bring to a simmer, and then poach the chicken pieces for about 30 minutes. Chef's Tip: I use boneless breasts, and thighs, but if you have bone-in... that's okay. Chef's Tip: Remove the skin from the chicken before poaching. Chef's Note: You will lose about 1/4 cup of liquid during the poaching process, due to evaporation.
  • 3. Chef's Note: While the chicken is simmering, you will need to skim off any of the white protein material that floats to the top. I do this with a fine mesh skimmer.
  • 4. Chef's Note: If you don't have fresh chicken broth, you can substitute chicken bullion. My favorite bullion cubes are: Telma... They come in Chicken, Beef, and Vegetable. And, if anyone is interested; they're Kosher. Of course, if you're using bullion cubes, technically you don't have a stock you have a broth.
  • 5. After thirty minutes, remove the chicken from the stock, allow to cool, and then dice into bite-size pieces, and set aside. Chef's Note: I like to use a 50/50 mix of white and dark meat; however, there's nothing wrong with going with one or the other.
  • 6. Pour the chicken stock into a fat separator, allow to sit for a few minutes, and then remove any accumulated fat from the stock. Pour the defatted stock back into the pot.
  • 7. Add the cumin, salt, chili powder, pepper, and cayenne into the stock, and then stir to combine.
  • 8. Add the chicken, tomato puree, and the chopped veggies to the pot, place over medium heat, and then bring to a simmer. Chef's Note: What is a simmer? A simmer is when bubbles are rising in the liquid, and lightly breaking on the surface.
  • 9. Cover the pot, and place in a preheated 225f (107c) oven for one hour. Chef's Note: Why the oven? When you use the oven, as opposed to stovetop cooking, you get a more evenly distributed heat; while in stovetop cooking the heat is concentrated in the bottom of the pan.
  • 10. Remove the pot from the oven, add the lemon juice, and serve.
  • 11. Plate/Present Good white bowls are excellent here, because they show off the colors of the soup. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream, and maybe some nice fresh crackers, or a rustic loaf of bread.
  • 12. This hearty soup has just the right balance between heat and flavor. The cayenne and chili powder give the dish a bit of warmth that's just a perfect balance. It will warm your heart, it will warm your soul... it will warm your spirit. Keep the faith, and keep cooking...

TOMATO & CHICKEN RICE SOUP



Tomato & Chicken Rice Soup image

When my friend stops by for lunch, I fix some garlic toast and turn this soup into a complete meal. It's also a great way to cut back on calories and fat.

Provided by Tammy Raynes

Categories     Chicken Soups

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 c all- purpose flour
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green pepper, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
3 green onions, chopped
2 tsp canola oil
3 clove garlic, minced
2 c water
2 can(s) (14.5-oz each) reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 c cooked brown rice
2 c cubed cooked chicken breast
1 can(s) (14.5-oz) diced tomatoes
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
1 bay leaf
3/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. In a small nonstick skillet, brown flour over medium high heat; set aside.
  • 2. In a Dutch oven, saute the onion, green pepper, celery and green onions in oil until tender.
  • 3. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in flour until blended. Stir in the remaining ingredients; bring to a boil.
  • 4. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, juicy tomatoes: This will give your soup a richer flavor. If you're using canned tomatoes, choose ones that are packed in juice, not water.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too much chicken or vegetables to the pot, the soup will be thin and watery. Add the ingredients in batches, if necessary.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for a bit of tang.
  • Serve the soup hot with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for chicken tomato soup include grated Parmesan cheese, croutons, and chopped fresh parsley.
