White Wine Chicken Soup
INGREDIENTS
1/2 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken
2 parsnips, peeled and chopped
1 medium head garlic, peeled
2 large onions, chopped
5 carrots, chopped
2 zucchini, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 sweet potato, peeled and cubed
1 packet chicken vegetable soup mix
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon paprika
8 cups water
1/2 (750 milliliter) bottle white wine
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, combine chicken, parsnips, garlic, onions, carrots, zucchini, parsley, celery, potatoes, sweet potato, soup mix, oregano, paprika, water, wine, salt and pepper. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 30 minutes, partially covered, then reduce heat to low and simmer another 90 minutes.
I downloaded this recipe about a year ago. It is my favorite chicken soup recipe. I start out by putting some olive oil in the bottom of a deep pan. I put in my chopped veggies and garlic and cook til they are softened. I deglaze the pan with the white wine. I add in 8 cups chicken broth and the the spices/soup mix. I always save the breasts from a roasted chicken when I want to make this soup. I shred the meat and put it into the pot with the other ingredients. If I want to thicken the soup I sometimes sprinkle a little flour over the veggies after they are soft and before I add the wine. I love the sweetness of the sweet potatoes in this recipe. When ever my little sister is sick she asks for this soup.
