Directions
On those cold nights when I cant seem to get the chill out of my bones, I love making soup. One of my favorite soups growing up was Beef Barley Soup, but this chicken version which is a bit lighter, is also delicious. use chicken on the bone because it gives it even more flavor. Its a soup my whole family loves and is a nice alternative to classic chicken noodle soup. For more of soup recipes, click here.,I love the chewy texture of barley, which feels like pasta when you eat it. use pearl barley in this soup, which cooks faster than hulled barley. Using barley in your chicken soup makes for a more nutritious dish than chicken noodle soup. Barley has a ton of fiber, which helps with weight loss and digestion. It also has some protein and vitamins and minerals, like B6, niacin, phosphorous, and selenium.,No, you dont need to cook the barley before adding it to the soup. The barley cooks right in the soup.,If you cant find barley, sub it with farro or quinoa as a gluten-free option. Pasta can also be used, adjust cook time as directed.,If you have leftover rotisserie chicken you can use that instead.,Chicken Soup with Spinach and Acini Di Pepe,Chicken and Avocado Soup,Chicken Enchilada Soup,Chicken and Lentil Soup,Chicken Sweet Potato and Kale Soup
