I made this soup today using leftover chicken breasts from store bought roasted chicken. I added it during the last 10 minutes of cooking time druing Step 2.
Chicken Curry Soup
6 servings, 1 1/3 cups each
Active Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 large onion, chopped
4-5 cloves garlic, crushed
3 slices fresh ginger, peeled and lightly crushed
3 tablespoons curry powder, preferably Madras
1/2 cup white rice
2 bone-in chicken breasts, (about 1 pound), skinned and trimmed
4 cups Homemade Chicken Broth, (recipe follows) or reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 cups water
1 vine-ripened tomato, seeded and chopped
Salt & freshly ground pepper, to taste
Lemon juice, to taste
Finely chopped fresh cilantro, or chives for garnish
Preparation
- Heat oil in a Dutch oven or soup pot over low heat. Add onion, garlic and ginger; stirring occasionally to prevent browning, cook until the onion is soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add curry powder and rice; cook for 5 minutes longer.
- Add chicken, broth and water. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium. Simmer, stirring frequently, just until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate to cool.
- Puree soup in batches in a food processor until smooth, adding water as needed for a creamy texture. Return soup to cleaned pot and heat again to a simmer.
- Shred the chicken into small strips and add to the soup along with tomato; cook 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
- Just before serving, stir in lemon juice. Ladle into bowls and garnish with cilantro or chives.
