I'm originally from Minnesota, where wild rice grows in abundance and is very popular in recipes. This creamy chicken and wild rice soup has been part of our Christmas Eve menu for years.

CHICKEN AND WILD-RICE SOUP



Chicken and Wild-Rice Soup image

Categories     Chicken     Rice     Low Sodium     Wild Rice     Simmer     Boil

Yield serves 4 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, coarsely chopped
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) low-sodium chicken broth
2/3 cup wild-rice blend
2 1/2 cups water
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 8 ounces)
4 carrots, coarsely chopped
4 celery stalks, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chicken broth, rice, and the water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook 35 minutes.
  • Add chicken, carrots, and celery. Return to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer. Cook (uncovered) until vegetables are tender and chicken is opaque throughout, about 15 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a cutting board. Shred with two forks.
  • Return chicken to pot; season soup with salt and pepper. At this point, soup can be refrigerated up to 2 days in an airtight container; let cool completely before storing. Reheat gently before serving.
  • Rice Blends
  • Wild-rice blends, which often combine wild rice with white, brown, basmati, and other types of rice, tend to have a more complex flavor and texture than any one variety. You can substitute a blend in any recipe that calls for wild rice.

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.
