Avocado, lime and cilantro give this chicken and rice soup its Mexican flair. It makes about 8 servings and is great for when you're having a crowd. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 5-inch piece fresh ginger, minced (3 tablespoons) |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 small red onion, thinly sliced |
2 medium parsnips, peeled and chopped (1 1/2 cups) |
1 medium turnip, peeled and chopped (1 1/2 cups) |
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped (1 1/2 cups) |
2 celery stalks, thinly sliced (2 cups) |
2 32-ounce boxes low-sodium chicken broth (8 cups) |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/2 rotisserie chicken, meat shredded (2 cups) |
1/3 cup frozen peas, thawed |
3 scallions, trimmed and sliced |
maple-glazed walnut biscuits |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan or stockpot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the parsnips, turnip, carrots, celery, broth, and salt and bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the chicken, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in the peas and scallions, and let sit, covered, for 1 minute. Serve with Maple-Glazed Walnut Biscuits. |
