Directions
Chunky Chicken Soup, Mediterranean Style, From ‘Tapas Simply add a crusty loaf of bread and dinner’s on the table Posted for ZWT3 , This soup is our first post-holiday, vegetable-loaded, chicken soup I have made before in the crock pot and my entire family loved it I cooked on low all day and added the rice about 20 minutes before serving This time, I made according to recipe on the stove top except I got a little carried away slicing carrots with one of my Christmas presents I compensated for the additional carrots with a little more green bean (about 16 oz versus 10 oz), tossed in fresh spinach, doubled the basil, added a little more rice (3/4 cup versus 1/2), another 2 cups chicken broth, and a tad more garlic and about a teaspoon onion powder It seems pretty thick but looks like pictures and has a nice flavor I intend to let it sit overnight, and we will warm it up have it for both lunch and dinner tomorrow with salad Sadly, not with bread!, We all enjoyed this recipe It was a very hearty, comforting soup for a cold winter day I actually made it twice, once for a Christmas caroling party, another time for guest It was enjoyed both times by all Thanks
