2 chicken leg quarters, skin removed |
5 cups water, or as needed to cover |
1/2 small head green cabbage, chopped |
2 carrots, peeled and sliced |
2 stalks celery, sliced |
1 onion, sliced |
2 bay leaves |
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1 pinch ground thyme |
1 pinch dried marjoram |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
4 small dill pickles, thinly sliced |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup sour cream |
Directions:
1. Place chicken legs in a large pot and cover with water. Add cabbage, carrots, celery, onion, bay leaves, parsley, garlic, thyme, marjoram, salt, and black pepper.
2. Cover pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for about 1 hour. Transfer 1 cup chicken and vegetable broth to a saucepan. Heat broth and pickles over medium-low for about 15 minutes. Return pickle broth to large pot.
