Time 1h15m

Yield Eight to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 cups basic chicken broth (see recipe)
1 carrot, peeled and minced
1 onion, peeled and minced
1 stalk celery, peeled and minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup shredded cooked chicken
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ricotta cheese
1 egg
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Place the chicken soup in a wide pot over low heat. Add the carrot, onion, celery and garlic and simmer over very low heat for 40 minutes. Add the shredded chicken.
  • Meanwhile, place the ground beef in a bowl. Season with a half teaspoon of salt, a half teaspoon of black pepper and one tablespoon of the minced parsley. Form the meat into balls that are about one inch in diameter. Using a spoon, gently slide the meatballs into the broth. Do not raise heat or stir, but use a spoon to gently turn each meatball, so that they cook evenly.
  • Place the ricotta and the egg in a bowl. Season it with one teaspoon of salt, a half-teaspoon of black pepper and one tablespoon of the minced parsley, then stir well to combine. After the meatballs have cooked for 20 minutes, use a teaspoon to form ricotta dumplings and carefully slide them into the broth. Do not raise the heat or touch the dumplings until they are set, about seven minutes.
  • Adjust the seasoning of the soup with additional salt and pepper. Carefully ladle the soup into warmed bowls, garnishing each with the remaining minced parsley, and serve.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor. The meatballs were also a bit dry. Overall, I was not impressed with this recipe.

I'm not sure what all the hype is about this soup. It was just okay. The meatballs were a bit bland and the broth was not very flavorful. I probably won't make this soup again.
