A hearty way to use up leftover chicken pieces.


Ingredients (serves 6)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 leek, white part only, thinly diced
  • 1/2 tsp minced garlic
  • 2 ltr chicken stock (I used Massel's gluten-free stock)
  • 4 cups pre-cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1/2 brown onion, diced
  • 1 x potato, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 turnip, peeled and chopped
  • 1 x parsnip, chopped
  • 1 x carrot, peeled and diced
  • 3 x celery stalks, diced
  • 1 salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Pour the oil into a soup pot, and lightly brown the onion and minced garlic.
  2. Add the vegetables and stir, then add in the stock and chicken pieces. Then bring the soup mix to the boil, and then reduce to a simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and cooked.
  3. Serve hot.

  • Sounds great for winter lunches, too.

  • Can’t go past chicken and vege soup in the cold. Especially when you’re feeling a little under the weather.

  • Always yummy and so comforting. I usually use my roast chicken carcass to whip up a batch of soup.

  • I always use my chicken carcasses for this. Sometimes I just freeze it and use as stock and other times it’s turned into chicken noodle and veggie soup. So good
