Chicken soup has been called everything from “flu therapy” to sustenance for the soul. Here’s a good recipe you can make in under an hour.
Ingredients: 6 cups of chicken broth that’s not too salty; 1 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breasts; 1 tablespoon oil; 1 medium onion, chopped; 2 medium carrots, cut diagonally into slices; 2 celery ribs, cut into slices; salt and pepper; 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley.
Cook chicken in broth. Bring to a boil. Skim surface and simmer for 30 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Shred when cool. While chicken is cooking, sauté onion in oil in a soup pot over moderate heat until softened. Add carrots, celery, salt, and pepper. Cook about 8 minutes. Add cooking broth and simmer, covered, until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir chicken and parsley into soup and serve. Serves 4.
