Scarborough Fair Chicken Barley Soup image

Intrigued by a packet of fresh poultry herbs I found at the store, this recipe uses Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme (which reminded me of the Simon and Garfunkel song, inspiring the name for this soup). Aside from the bouillon, there is no added salt needed, as the flavor is lovely without it.

Time 1h20m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 whole rotisserie-cooked chicken, skinned, removed from bone and cut into small pieces
6 quarts water
chicken bouillon, according to package directions (I use paste style, as it's less salty than cubes)
6 carrots, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
4 celery ribs, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups pearl barley
2 teaspoons fresh parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh sage, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring water and bouillon to a boil, add all other ingredients and simmer for 50-60 minutes or until barley is tender.

I'm allergic to barley, so I used rice instead. It turned out great!

This soup is way too salty. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This soup is a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

This soup is amazing! The flavors are so rich and complex, and the barley gives it a hearty texture. I will definitely be making this again.
