Step 3

Pull chicken from rotisserie and place in the pan with olive oil (this is optional but the veggies soaked up the butter for me). Turn up heat to medium medium-high. Once the chicken has begun to brown ass seasonings to let them bloom a bit. Add garlic and let simmer for a minute or two.

Step 4

Add the broth and parsley, bring to a simmer. Let everything get to know each other for about 30 minutes minimum. Add dill before serving.

Step 5

Serve up soup by combining rice and broth to keep rice from overcooking
