Ingredients

How to make it

  • Skin chicken parts and cover with water and cook until tender.
  • Skim off any foam when cooking.
  • Remove chicken to cool and strain broth.
  • Shred or cut up cooled chicken.
  • You could also do all of this this ahead of time and also chill broth and remove any accumulated fat.
  • Coarse cube vegetables. In a very large stock pot, heat some olive oil and cook vegetables several minutes to release flavors.
  • Add the chicken broth, cooked chicken, cooked barley and seasonings.
  • Bring to a boil and cook on low simmer, covered until vegetables are tender; about 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Correct seasonings.
  • To keep as a soup make sure there is enough broth since the barley will tend to absorb any liquid.
  • This dish will be more stew like if allowed to be thickened by the barley.
  • Makes about a gallon or over 12 servings.
  • Prortion out servings in freezer containers and freeze what you want.
