Recipe Summary Grandpa's Garden Chicken Soup

Grandpa sends me veggies from his huge garden every year and I use 'em for this soup, which has been called 'the best soup I've ever eaten' by friends. It's pretty unstructured and can change to meet your personal tastes. It's basically a chicken veggie soup; it's the FRESH veggies that make it the best. I just throw stuff in until it looks and tastes the way I want it to. It's also GREAT if you're sick; I swear it'll cure what ails ya! YUM! The longer you SLOWLY cook the soup, the more flavorful it becomes. I often eat a bowl while it's simmering 'cause I can't wait.

Ingredients | Covent Garden Tomato And Basil Soup Calories

1 whole chicken, quartered

water, to cover

½ large onion, chopped

1 stalk celery with leaves, cut into chunks

3 cubes chicken bouillon

¼ cup chopped fresh basil

¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

1 tablespoon chopped garlic

1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

2 Yukon Gold potatoes, diced

2 kohlrabi bulbs, peeled and diced

2 carrots, sliced

1 large turnip, diced

½ medium head cabbage, chopped

2 ears sweet corn, cut from cob

4 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed

1 tomato, chopped

Directions

Put chicken pieces in a large stockpot; pour enough water over chicken to cover completely. Add onion, celery, bouillon cubes, basil, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper to the pot; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook at a simmer until the chicken is cooked through and tender, about 1 hour.

Remove and discard celery chunks. Remove chicken to a cutting board to cool; cut as much meat as possible from the bones and chop roughly. Return chicken to stock.

Stir potatoes, kohlrabi, carrots, and turnip into the soup; cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Add cabbage, corn, green beans, and tomato; cook until the green beans are tender, 7 to 10 minutes more.
