CREAMY CHICKEN AND WILD RICE SOUP



Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup image

A supremely filling, hearty soup. I serve this on cold rainy days with a loaf of homemade bread. Hint: this is perfect for leftover rotisserie chicken or chicken you've pulled from the bone after making homemade chicken stock! This soup makes great leftovers, but you might want to thin it slightly with skim milk or water when reheating.

SLOW COOKER CREAMY CHICKEN SOUP WITH LEMON, RICE AND DILL



Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Soup With Lemon, Rice and Dill image

This lightly creamy and incredibly comforting soup is all about the almost-austere interplay of chicken, broth, white rice and lemon. It's also a great way to use up leftover rice: Any variety will work. Tempering the yolks (slowly whisking hot broth into them) ensures that they will emulsify and thicken the soup, and not scramble. Use a half cup of lemon juice for an assertively tart soup, but, for a gentler effect, use the smaller amount. If you prefer, you can use an equivalent weight of chicken legs instead of thighs.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weekday, soups and stews, main course

Time 6h20m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large yellow onion, peeled and quartered
2 carrots, peeled, trimmed and halved
2 celery stalks, halved
5 large garlic cloves, peeled
1 bay leaf
3 1/2 to 4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 8 thighs)
6 cups chicken broth or stock
Black pepper
Kosher salt
2 cups cooked white rice
1/3 to 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 large lemons), more as needed
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sour cream
1 small bunch dill, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and bay leaf in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Pull the skin off half of the thighs and discard it (or save to render the fat at another time). Add the chicken to the slow cooker and top with broth. Season generously with pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt if you are using low-sodium broth or 1 teaspoon salt if using homemade unsalted stock. (Do not add salt now if you are using fully salted broth.) Cover and cook on low for at least 4 hours and up to 6 hours. If it's more convenient, you can let the slow cooker switch to warm after 6 hours. The soup will hold on warm for about another 2 hours before the chicken starts to dry out.
  • With a spoon or ladle, skim and discard any obvious foam and fat from the top of the soup. With tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and vegetables to a bowl and strain the broth. Discard the vegetables (or if they still have flavor, set them aside for a snack) and let the chicken cool while you finish the soup. Return the broth to the slow cooker, and switch the heat to high. Stir in the rice, cover and let the soup heat up until it is at least steaming hot, or bubbling a bit around the edges, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk the lemon juice, egg yolks and sour cream in a medium bowl until creamy and combined. Dip a liquid measuring cup into the hot broth. While whisking constantly, very slowly drizzle about 2 cups of hot broth into the lemon juice mixture until fully combined and smooth. Pour this mixture into the slow cooker with the rest of the soup and whisk for another minute or so, until the soup starts to thicken enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon. Coarsely shred the chicken meat and add it into the soup, discarding the bones and skin. Stir in the dill and taste the soup. Add salt if necessary, and more lemon juice and black pepper if you like. If the soup isn't hot enough, cover and let heat on high for another 10 minutes.

CREAMY CHICKEN-WILD RICE SOUP



Creamy Chicken-Wild Rice Soup image

The boyfriend loves creamy chicken-rice soups, and this is my effort to that end. I like the addition of sherry and a dash of curry powder and it's a great way to use up leftover chicken (and presumably turkey). This soup will thicken up overnight; it can be thinned with more chicken stock without losing flavor; adjust salt and pepper to taste. Almonds are optional but add an interesting crunch; this soup is also "crockpot-able" if you prefer.

CREAMY CHICKEN WILD RICE SOUP



Creamy Chicken Wild Rice Soup image

I usually double this recipe or triple it - we LOVE this soup (stew? it's on the thicker side)! You can easily freeze this to reheat later - I like to do it in my food-saver bags, then all I have to do is boil the bag. I tend to "eye-ball" my measurements on the onion, carrots, celery because they just add more wonderful flavor anyways. With the wild rice - you can either use the directions listed below or cook according to the package directions with as much rice as you want! :) Serve with a nice crusty bread - I really like french or ciabatta because they're both good at soaking up the last wonderful drops in the bowl!

CREAMY TURKEY (OR CHICKEN) AND WILD RICE SOUP



CREAMY TURKEY (OR CHICKEN) AND WILD RICE SOUP image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Poultry     Thanksgiving

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 c. uncooked wild rice (I prefer the whole grain style, not the cracked)
1/2 c. unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 carrots, sliced into 1/4? thick coins
8 oz. fresh button mushrooms, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 c. all-purpose flour
8 c. low sodium chicken broth
2 c. half and half
2 T. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 tsp. finely chopped fresh thyme (or 1/2 tsp. dried)
1/4 c. finely chopped fresh parsley (or 2 tsp. dried)
4 c. cooked and coarsely shredded turkey or chicken
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • First off, you'll want to get your wild rice cooking, so it's ready to add to the finished soup. Prepare according to the package instructions. (It takes awhile - the instructions on my bag says to cook it for 55 minutes.) The remainder of the recipe can be made in one stock pot. Start by melting the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, mushrooms, and garlic. Stir well and saute until the onion is transparent and softened. Blend in flour, cooking until it bubbles a bit. Gradually add the broth, stirring constantly. Turn up the heat a bit and bring the soup to a low boil. Boil for 1 minute. Reduce heat slightly and add the cooked wild rice, half and half, soy sauce, salt, pepper, bay leaf, thyme, parsley, and turkey or chicken. Simmer for 20 minutes or until thoroughly warmed. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and taste test to see if it needs more salt and pepper. Serve with crackers or warm bread.
