CHINESE CHICKEN VEGETABLE SOUP



Chinese Chicken Vegetable Soup image

We had a Chinese restaurant that made two soups that I loved how they tasted. When they went out of business, we looked for someone else that made these two soups, without much luck. Knowing all the ingredients that were there, I went to work to make my own recipe for this very tasty soup. Plus I'm a big fan of 'make it tasty, fast and easy' which this is, when I run the veggies through my food processor. Also when I not feel well, this is one soup that has all what help me feel better. I also serve this with steamed rice as a side dish for those who want it as well.

Steps:

  • Spray a 12-inch skillet with the cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add the chicken and garlic and cook for 10 minutes or until the chicken is well browned on both sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
  • Stir the broth, rice and vegetables in the skillet and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Stir in the cheese.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet. Sprinkle the chicken with the paprika. Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, seasonal vegetables. This will ensure that your dishes are packed with flavor and nutrients.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different cooking methods. Roasting, grilling, sautéing, and stir-frying are all great ways to cook vegetables.
  • Add herbs and spices to your dishes for extra flavor. Some good options include garlic, onion, basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Don't overcook your vegetables. Overcooked vegetables are mushy and bland. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
  • Serve your vegetables with a variety of dipping sauces. This will make them more appealing to your guests.
