One of the best chicken soup recipes I have ever tasted. I do this buy a roasted chicken at the grocery store (the ones they cook in a rotisserie)let it cool remove all the skin and bones then dice in big pieces put in the stock pot with the ingredients cook and serve. Really a great flavor.
Two thumbs up! My subs: I used one pkg of chicken ( 1.5 lbs) - this seemed like plenty. I did double up the ham to please my meat-loving fiance. I also subbed a can of diced tomatoes for the fresh (though in retrospect I think the fresh would have been much better.) Overall I think this soup took almost 2 hours from pot to table. Next time I'll increase the rice and use cilantro for the parsley.
Awesome Recipe! We selected this receipe for an international dinner at our church. EVERYONE loved it and many asked for a copy of the recipe. We used bouillon cubes to enrich the broth and added a rib of celery (chopped). It was delicious!!! There were about 50 - 60 people at our dinner so that gives you 300 stars!!!!
Good the first day AWESOME the next. Make it the day before so the flavors will blend better.
This was a great chicken soup. I added 1/4 can of tomato sauce to give the soup a little more tomatoey flavor. It reminds me of a spanish stew my mother made when I was growing up. I may add a few potatoes next time. Thanks for the recipe.
This was my first try at making chicken soup and it was delicious! I only made some slight changes I used a can of diced tomatoes(strained) instead of fresh and added a little more rice and ham. Will definitely make again.
I really loved this soup But what is really important is My Husband loved it. I added a little more rice.
what a great soup and so healthy too. We added a rib of diced celery to the mix and a little celery salt and pepper. WOW! thanks for the keeper:-)
Wonderful!! I used leftover chicken and leftover ham. Did not have fresh tomatoes; so added some homemade canned stewed tomatoes from the garden. We absolutely loved this and was easy to prepare for a busy day. There are leftovers for tomorrow; soup always tastes better the next day. Thanks for adding a new soup recipe for us CORWYNN DARKHOLME!! This a keeper and one that will be used many times.
