Okay so seeing as the weather has turned winter & the
sniffles are out & about… I cooked this soup for all of us girls here at Majorca
yesterday & even the babes loved it… Enjoy it as much as did
Poached Chicken & vegetable Soup
Ingredients:
1.6 kg whole free range Chicken
4 carrots
1 heart celery, sliced
12 potatoes (peeled)
A few fresh sprigs of fresh thyme
1 leek, washed & shredded
1 small bunch of coriander & parsley leaves picked &
chopped
Method:
Wash your Chicken in cold water & pat dry with kitchen
paper…. Place the chicken, carrots, celery, potatoes & thyme into a large,
deep pan & pour in 3 litres of water or enough to cover the chicken…
Simmer on a medium heat for 1 .5 hours or until the chicken
is cooked through…
Remove chicken from pan & strain broth…Save the veg for
later… Put the broth back on a high heat & allow to reduce for 15 minutes
until there’s about 2 litres left…
Tear the cooked chicken into long chunks… Once the broth has
reduced, throw the vegetables back in the pan with leeks & chicken… Simmer
for a further 5 minutes, then remove the sprigs of thyme…
Serve in warm bowls sprinkled with chopped with coriander
& parsley….
