Categories     Soup

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup uncooked wild rice blend*
1 cup chopped yellow onion ((1 small onion))
1 cup diced carrots ((2 medium))
1 cup diced celery ((3 ribs))
7 Tbsp butter, (diced, divided)
1 large garlic clove, (minced (1 1/2 tsp))
4 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 tsp of each dried thyme, (marjoram, sage and rosemary (or 1 tsp fresh, minced of any))
Salt and ground black pepper, (to taste)
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts halves
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp lemon zest

Steps:

  • Prepare rice according to directions listed on package.
  • Halfway through the rice cooking, in a separate large pot, melt 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add onion, carrots and celery and saute 4 minutes, add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer.
  • Add chicken broth, thyme, marjoram, sage, rosemary and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Increase heat to medium-high, add chicken and bring mixture to a boil.
  • Cover pot with lid, reduce to medium-low heat and allow mixture to simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 12 - 16 minutes (rotating chicken to opposite side once during cooking for thicker chicken breasts - if they don't fully immerse in broth).
  • Remove chicken and set aside on cutting board to cool 5 minutes then shred into small bite size pieces. Leave soup covered over warm heat.
  • Meanwhile in a separate medium saucepan, melt remaining 6 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook 1 1/2 minutes, whisking constantly.
  • Then while whisking vigorously, slowly pour milk into butter/flour mixture. Whisk in heavy cream. Cook mixture, stirring constantly until it thickens.
  • Add milk mixture to soup mixture in pot along with shredded chicken, cooked rice, and lemon zest. Stir well and remove from heat.
  • Let soup cool slightly and serve.

CREAMY CHICKEN AND WILD RICE SOUP



Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup image

A supremely filling, hearty soup. I serve this on cold rainy days with a loaf of homemade bread. Hint: this is perfect for leftover rotisserie chicken or chicken you've pulled from the bone after making homemade chicken stock! This soup makes great leftovers, but you might want to thin it slightly with skim milk or water when reheating.

Time 2h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ⅓ cups wild rice
1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
7 cups water
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
¾ teaspoon ground white pepper
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup margarine
¾ cup all-purpose flour
4 cups milk
¾ cup white wine

Steps:

  • Cook the wild rice according to package directions, but remove from heat about 15 minutes before it's done. Drain the excess liquid, and set aside.
  • In a stock pot over high heat, combine the chicken and the water. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to low. Simmer for 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked and tender. Remove chicken from the pot, and allow it to cool. Strain the broth from the pot, and reserve for later. When chicken is cool, remove the meat from the bones, cut into bite size pieces, and reserve. Discard the fat and the bones.
  • In the same stock pot over medium heat, saute the celery and onion in the oil for 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, and cover. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is tender. Return the broth to the stock pot, and add the partially cooked wild rice. Stir in the bouillon, white pepper and salt; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt margarine in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour until smooth. Whisk in the milk, and continue cooking until mixture is bubbly and thick. Add some of the broth mixture to the milk mixture, continuing to stir, then stir all of the milk mixture into the broth mixture.
  • Mix in the reserved chicken meat and the white wine. Allow this to heat through for about 15 minutes.

CREAM OF CHICKEN & WILD RICE SOUP



Cream of Chicken & Wild Rice Soup image

Inspired by a dish from a restaurant. If you use plain wild rice (the box usually comes with seasonings), you'll probably need to add some additional seasonings.

Provided by Starrynews

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (6 ounce) box long grain and wild rice blend
1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth
4 chicken tenderloins
2 tablespoons cornstarch
pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup onion
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup carrot, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup mushroom, sliced
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1/2 teaspoon sage

Steps:

  • Prepare rice according to package directions. The box I use usually runs about 25 minutes, so I usually give it a 10 minute head start and then start working on the rest.
  • In another pan, bring the chicken broth to a boil.
  • Cut the chicken into pieces and coat with the corn starch and pepper. Put chicken into the boiling broth and reduce heat to medium.
  • Add carrots, celery, and mushrooms to the broth mixture and let cook until tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a small pan, melt butter over medium heat.
  • Add onions and saute until soft.
  • Stir in flour, coating onions and absorbing the butter.
  • Stir milk into flour mixture, and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
  • When rice is done, add to the broth mixture and stir in rosemary and sage.
  • Stir the flour mixture into the broth mixture and heat through, stirring until thickened throughout.
  • Enjoy!
