Ingredients

1 whole Chicken (or 4-5 breasts)

1 large onion

4 potatoes, diced

3 carrots, sliced

1 16 oz. pkg. shredded cabbage, or 1 lb fresh cabbage, shredded

4 peppercorns

4 whole allspice berries (or 1 tsp. ground)

1 bay leaf

2 chicken bullion cubes

1 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes

1-2 quarts water

1 cup Half & Half

1 tsp Salt

Directions

Cook chicken in salted water until tender. Remove from broth, remove meat from bones and cut into bite-sized pieces.

Add potatoes, carrots, and onions to broth and cook until almost tender.

When vegetables are almost cooked through, add diced chicken, tomatoes, cabbage, bullion cubes, and a spice ball containing the peppercorns, allspice berries, and bay leaf.

Continue cooking until cabbage is tender.

Add half & half and allow to heat through.

Note: Do NOT omit the allspice! That is what makes this recipe so good.

Thank you so much, greg! Of course, you get me ^5 on this one. I know that the allspice is in there for the cabbage and that addition just makes this post better! Keep on cookin', dude.

This sounds great. Can not wait to try it. I agree with lacrenshaw on this one. The allspice with the cabbage make this soup. You have our 5 as well!
