This soup is so delicious and hearty! It's also very healthy. I make it with roasted chicken and stock and fresh thyme from my garden. I roast a chicken, then make chicken stock from the carcass. I was surprised at what a difference this made!
Ingredients
- 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil shopping list
- 2 cups each chopped celery (hearts with the leaves are best) and carrots shopping list
- 1 cup each chopped onion and yellow pepper shopping list
- 3 large cloves garlic, chopped shopping list
- salt and pepper shopping list
- 1 cup white wine, chardonnay or sauv. blanc is the best shopping list

- 3 tablespoons fresh thyme or 1 tablespoons dried thyme shopping list
- 2 cups cooked (I used roasted) cubed white and dark meat chicken shopping list

How to make it
- Cook rice, according to package direction (brown rice takes about the same amount of time that the soup takes)
- Heat oil in a large dutch oven (or heavy pot) on the stove
- Add all vegies (and salt and pepper) and cook until tender, about 12 to 15 minutes
- Add wine and cook until reduced by half, about 10 min.
