This is fantastic.
I came home from work really tired and had some cooked chicken in the fridge.
What do you put with it to make a really healthy, protein packed, fab tasting meal (that I can just bung spinach with)?
This.
It freezes brilliantly.
Cut and dice 2 cups each of peeled carrot & peeled parsnips.
Cut up one onion (you can add in a couple of celery stalks & chop them up as well if you want to).
You can use other veggies if you have any or prefer them- keep the parsnips in or substitute with another root vegetable (this gives the soup added taste & thickness).
Place in a pan – cover with chicken stock (ideally homemade approximately a litre, the more veggies you use the more chicken stock you’ll need)
Season with salt & pepper.
Bring to boil and simmer gently (with lid 3/4 on) until veggies cooked.
Check taste and add more seasoning if needed- whizz in a food processor.
Add about 4 cooked diced or sliced chicken breasts and stir in.
Done. Beautiful.
For an extra protein hit add more cooked warm chicken when you serve it.
Make lots of it , so you can freeze it when cooled.
