Receta Good ol' chicken soup
in the Southern Hemisphere we are in winter so soup is a good warmer in the evenings ,here are some soups I found while browsing on the I africa site
When winter strikes there's nothing more comforting than a bowl of steaming chicken soup to warm both body and soul.
Here's a tried and tested version that keeps things simple:
Ingredientes
- About five chicken pieces on the bone (it's worth having about two chicken breasts, one or two thighs and a drumstick or two for a variety of flavour)
- 4 stalks of celery with leaves, finely chopped
- 6 large carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 handful of dried barley
- 1 clove of garlic, chopped
- 1.5l of good chicken stock
- 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
Direcciones
- Place all the celery, onion, garlic and carrot into a deep soup pot and sauté until the onions turn glassy.
- Now add the chicken pieces and barley and top the lot with the 1.5l of chicken stock.
- Bring to boil, cover and simmer gently for 2 hours.
- Strain the stock, discard the bones from the chicken.
- Return the stock, the chicken flesh and the vegetables to the pot.
- Add a little more water if necessary.
- Add the parsley and let it simmer for another 20 minutes or so.
- Taste - might want to add a little more salt and black pepper.
- Serve with good, crusty French bread.
