Clayton and I love soup so I started a post asking for favorite recipes on Facebook. I had many good responses so I designated this week as soup week. We will be trying 7 new recipes that are guaranteed to be tried-n-true by my friends. Day 1 started on Monday but then I ended up working on a movie set on Tuesday (12pm-2am), so day 2 got pushed to Wednesday. Well, I was too exhausted on Wednesday and we went out to eat instead. Tonight will be day 2 and then I will finish day 7 on Tuesday. I will post each recipe here along with a review so everyone can try these amazing soups. :)
Last week, we tried a recipe and loved it. This Sicilian Chicken Soup is very much the same as the chicken soup at Carrabba's. It is very hearty and the flavor is spot on. I want to thank Amy for sharing it with me. :)
Sicilian Chicken Soup (Carrabba's clone)
- 5 celery ribs
- 4 medium carrots peeled
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 medium potatoes peeled
- 1 large green bell pepper
1. Cook chicken. Reserve broth to cook vegetables in. Tear it into 1 inch pieces, kinda thin, but not shredded.
2. Dice celery, carrots, onion, potatoes and bell pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
3. Chop tomatoes; reserve all juice.
4. Place chicken broth, vegetables, tomatoes with their juice, parsley and garlic in a 10-quart stockpot. Season with salt and pepper. Slowly bring soup to a boil over low heat. Partially cover pot and simmer until vegetables are soft enough to mash in the bottom of the pot with the back side of a large cooking spoon. (I did not mash my veggies.)
5. Add chicken and bring it back to a simmer.
6. Add cooked pasta to soup. Sprinkle the fresh Romano cheese on top.
Note---If you prefer, you can refrigerate and remove the fat that solidifies on the surface of the soup.
