Time 30m

Yield 6 bowls, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup butter, 50 ml
1 onion, chopped 1
1 carrot, diced 1
1 celery rib, diced 1
1/2 lb raw chicken, diced 250 g
1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 75 ml
3 cups chicken stock, 750 ml
1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 ml
1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1 ml
2 cups milk, 500 ml
1 1/2 cups cooked rice, 375 ml

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan melt butter. Add onion, carrot and celery. Cook gently 5 min until vegetables are fragrant and tender.
  • Add chicken. Cook 2 to 3 min until chicken loses its raw appearance.
  • Sprinkle with flour. Cook 3 to 4 min, browning lightly.
  • Add chicken stock and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook 15 minute.
  • Add milk and bring to a boil. Add rice and cook 5 to 10 minute (If soup is thicker than you wish, add a bit more milk, if it is thinner than you like cook uncovered for 5 to 10 min to reduce it.) Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • Variation.
  • For Cream of Chicken Noodle Soup, add 1 ½ cups (375 ml) cooked noodles instead of the rice.
  • If you have left over cooked chicken or turkey, add it with the cooked rice in step #5 and omit step #2.
