Instructions

This Chicken & Rice Soup is a really adaptable soup that's easy to make and to eat. If you are on a bland diet, this soup can be tweaked to suit. See Ann's Tips. It only takes about an hour to put together yet tastes as if it's been simmering all day, plus it's a great candidate for the freezer, to keep for a down day. It's important to use chicken on the bone. The bones add flavor. I personally prefer dark meat, and my husband light, so in the spirit of compromise, I often use a mix of skinned chicken breasts and thighs for this soup. Personally I think the thighs give the soup extra richness. It's up to you.
