GRANDPA'S GARDEN CHICKEN SOUP



Grandpa's Garden Chicken Soup image

Grandpa sends me veggies from his huge garden every year and I use 'em for this soup, which has been called 'the best soup I've ever eaten' by friends. It's pretty unstructured and can change to meet your personal tastes. It's basically a chicken veggie soup; it's the FRESH veggies that make it the best. I just throw stuff in until it looks and tastes the way I want it to. It's also GREAT if you're sick; I swear it'll cure what ails ya! YUM! The longer you SLOWLY cook the soup, the more flavorful it becomes. I often eat a bowl while it's simmering 'cause I can't wait.

Categories     Chicken Soups

Number Of Ingredients 12

- 1 can (14.5 oz) italian-style stewed tomatoes
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup each coarsely chopped carrots, celery, & leeks/onions
- 1 lb. skinned boneless chicken breast cut in 1/2 inch chunks (if you use a family-sized rotisserie chicken, it makes a double batch)
- 8 cups chicken stock (not broth)
- 1 cup ditalini or other small pasta (caution: use less if you use acini de pepe since it swells terrifically!)
- 4 cups loosely packed, chopped greens (bagged mixed ones or mustard, turnip, collard, escarole) or even spinach work well & fast!
- 1 can (19 oz) white kidney beans (cannellini) or any other favorite, undrained
- 1/4 tsp each salt and freshly ground pepper
- (topping: grated parmesan cheese)
- 1 cup each chunked yellow and zucchini squash and colored sweet peppers

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in large stockpot over medium heat; add carrots & squash and saute until slightly softened.
  • Add garlic and saute 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add rest of chopped raw veggies (except greens, and beans which come later, almost at the end)and cook 3-4 minutes until almost tender.
  • Add chicken and cook 3 minutes, stirring often, until opaque.
  • Pour in chicken stock and tomatoes, increase heat to high, cover and bring to a boil.
  • Add pasta, reduce heat and simmer uncovered 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente.
  • Stir in greens and simmmer uncovered, stirring periodically, 20 minutes until greens are tender. Add undrained beans, salt and pepper and simmer 5 minutes longer until heated through.
  • Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with parmesan cheese, if desired. Very filling! I prep and prepare this through cooking the chicken, add tomatoes and stock, chill & complete it the next day, then adding the pasta.

Chef John's Beans and Greens image

Beans and greens has it all: it's very easy and inexpensive to make; it's highly nutritious; it's soulful and comforting; and it can be served as a main course, side dish, soup, vegetable stew, or my personal favorite--as an appetizer. This is my new favorite home version, and uses delicious, beautiful escarole.
