Chicken Soup For A Ill House

I haven't posted much lately because picky-picky hubby in addition to I accept had the flu. Not but your every twenty-four sixty minutes catamenia "better inwards a calendar week flu", but the onetime fashioned "don't fifty-fifty travel out of your jammies)"flu that has plagued us amongst sluggishness in addition to coughs for almost a month.

Our meals accept been uncomplicated in addition to to a greater extent than oftentimes than non from the crock pot (or frozen nutrient entree aisle) but in addition to then nosotros haven't had much of an appetite either. Now that nosotros are feeling a petty better, I am venturing dorsum into the kitchen.

This chicken soup has been a life saver for us during this time. I but continue it going inwards the boring cooker, adding a petty to a greater extent than broth in addition to veggies when necessary. It is a super uncomplicated recipe in addition to if your menage unit of measurement is coping amongst this ugly flu, similar nosotros are, I promise you lot volition laissez passer this magic "elixer" a try.



6 large boneless-skinless chicken thighs (dark meat has the best flavor)
1 loving cup chopped onion (I similar to role sweetness onions)
1 loving cup chopped celery
1 loving cup chopped carrot
2 quarts of good chicken stock (I role the boxed kind)
1 tablespoon chicken bullion granules
1/2 teaspoon dark pepper
1 teaspoon salt
pinch of dried thyme
pinch of poultry seasoning
2 cups favorite veggies (I role frozen mixed veggies)
spaghetti or fettuccine noodles (they concord upwards improve than other noodles)

Cube in addition to chocolate-brown the chicken thighs inwards a tablespoon of crude oil until you lot teach chocolate-brown crusty spots on the chicken. Remove from pan in addition to pose it into the crock pot. In the same pan, saute the onion, celery in addition to carrot until they teach a petty soft. Use a spatula in addition to role the wet inwards the veggies to de-glaze whatever crusty bits left inwards the bottom of the pan. Add this mixture into the crock pot ; those crusty chocolate-brown bits inwards the pan are PACKED amongst chicken flavor.

Add the broth, two cups favorite veggies, bullion granules in addition to tabular array salt in addition to pepper. Stir in addition to gear upwards on high for most half-dozen hours, stirring i time inwards a while. Half an sixty minutes earlier you lot serve this soup, interruption the noodles into 4" pieces in addition to pose into hot broth in addition to stir. The noodles should last ready to swallow inwards most xxx minutes.

NOTE: I accept tried many dissimilar kinds of noodles inwards this soup. Spaghetti seems to concord upwards the best without turning to mush if you lot are cooking the soup for a long fourth dimension or overnight. I also role rice instead of noodles, however, DO NOT pose the rice into the soup because later on a brusk while, it volition deteriorate in addition to brand your soup a mushy mess. Instead, brand the rice SEPARATELY in addition to pose a large spoon of it inwards your soup bowl in addition to ladle the soup OVER the rice. It alone took me most 10 years to figure this fox out.

NOTE: Any cutting of chicken volition operate inwards the soup, however, the dark meat gives the most flavor in addition to later on half-dozen hours, it volition soundless last real moist in addition to "fall apart" tender.


NOTE: Any form of veggies tin sack last used for the "favorite veggies" part. Just brand certain you lot role veggies that volition stand upwards up to long cooking. I normally role a frozen veggie mixture that has peas, corn, greenish beans in addition to carrots, but anything volition operate (just don't used canned veggies).

NOTE: Homemade chicken broth is best, but I never look to accept whatever when I desire to brand this soup, thence I role a skilful character BOXED chicken broth (just don't role bullion and H2O to brand broth because it volition last besides salty).
