Ingredients:

Serving

2 chicken breast
4 chicken drumstick
25 fresh tomatoes
3 large onions
1/2 cup minced garlic
50 oz. chicken broth
1 lb. mushrooms
2 cups chopped carrots
2 cups chopped celery
3/4 cup barley
1/2 cup brown rice
1/4 cup wild rice
2 tsp dry oregano
2 tsp dry parsley
2 tsp dry rosemary
2 tsp dry thyme
2 tsp dry basil
2 tsp marjoram
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp pepper
2/3 cup sesame seeds
4 tbsp chicken bouillon
4 medium zucchinis
4 cups eggplant
2 cups okra
3 cups fresh basil

Directions:

Wash and core all tomatoes, cut small x on bottom for easier skinning.
Blanch tomatoes for 1 minute in boiling water, immediately plung into ice bath in sink.
Remove tomato skins and cut into eighths placing in large bowl.
Combine bullion, chicken broth, half the tomatoes, 2 onions (chopped), garlic, the dark chicken meat (chopped), the chicken leg bones, 1 cup basil, mushrooms, a third of the carrots and celery, all the grains and seasonings in a large stainless steel soup pot.
Bring to boil, simmer for 1 hour or until grains are tender.
Meanwhile chop and cut-up carrots and celery, add them when grains are tender, let cook for about 10 minutes.
Cut up Chicken Breasts and add to pot.
Cut up the remaining onion, zucchinis, eggplant, and okra. Add to simmering pot.
Add remainder of cut tomatoes to pot.
Take soup's temperature, when it reaches above 165 degrees for at least one minute turn off the heat.
Add and stir in all remaining basil.
Sit covered for at least 10-20 minutes before serving.
Immediately ladle soup into 20 oz. Ziploc containers for freezing and serving. (Leaving soup in the pot too long causes everything to overcook and get mushy, so get it out of the pot as soon as possible to cool)
