Provided by Molly Watson

Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Appetizer     Side Dish     Soup

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup wild rice
1 tablespoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons butter
Optional: 3 ounces ham, bacon, or pancetta
2 medium leeks or small onions, finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
2 medium carrots, peeled and finely chopped
5 cups chicken, turkey, or vegetable broth
1 to 2 cups shredded or chopped cooked chicken or turkey
Optional: 2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 to 1 cup heavy cream
Dash sea salt to taste
Dash freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Bring 4 to 6 cups of water to a boil. Add the wild rice and salt. Cook until the wild rice is tender to the bite, about 30 minutes. Drain and set the rice aside.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the ham, bacon, or pancetta to the pot if using. Cook, stirring now and again until the meat is sizzling, some of its fat has rendered, and it is just barely starting to darken on the edges, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the leeks or onions, celery, and carrots. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the broth, pre-cooked chicken, and thyme sprigs if using and reserved wild rice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer , and cook to allow flavors to blend about 10 minutes.
  • Remove and discard the thyme sprigs. Stir in the cream (the more you use, the creamier it will be!) and bring back to a simmer. Add salt to taste.
  • Serve hot with a grinding or two of black pepper on top.

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.
