CREOLE CHICKEN SOUP

Creole Chicken Soup image

Just put this in the slow cooker in the morning and get a whiff of heaven when you come in the door in the evening! I cook it on high heat for one hour while the family gets ready for school and work, then turn it to low before we leave for the day. This is great served with corn muffins or over rice. Lots of ingredients but, except for the okra, they are all things that most cooks have on the shelf, or in the freezer or fridge. From the folks at Rodale Press's book "Your Family Will Love It." (Mine sure does!)

Tips:

Use a good quality chicken broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. If you don't have time to make your own, use a low-sodium store-bought broth.
Don't be afraid to add vegetables. Vegetables add flavor, nutrition, and color to your soup. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes.
Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor to soup. Some good choices include thyme, rosemary, and parsley.
Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through.
Season the soup to taste. Add salt and pepper to taste. You may also want to add a little bit of cayenne pepper for a bit of heat.

Conclusion:

Creole chicken soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With its flavorful broth, tender chicken, and hearty vegetables, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
