If you know what you’re doing, making soup is not a daunting task.  You select your ingredients knowing which flavor profiles best complement one another, sauté, boil or simmer until ready, and serve to your family for dinner.  Everyone is happy. If you don’t know what you’re doing, your family might prefer take-out.

Ingredients:


4 cloves of Garlic Olive Oil 2 Yellow Onions 3 Carrots 3 Celery Stalks Salt and Pepper 1 Vegetable Bouillon Cube 4qt Chicken Stock 1 Pre Cooked Rotisserie Chicken 3-4 Yukon Gold Potatoes One Lemon ¾ Cup Pulp Free Orange Juice Tabasco Sauce 4 Green Onions Cilantro Rice


 

Brazilian Chicken Soup (Canja) with Rice
Sauté 4 cloves of garlic in olive oil in a soup pot on low to medium heat, mince 2 yellow onions and add them into the pot with the garlic.  Mince 3 carrots and 3 celery stalks and add them to the pot. Season pot with some salt and pepper and throw in a vegetable bouillon cube. Sweat the garlic, onion, carrot and celery mixture for 5 minutes.

Pour three to four 1qt containers of chicken stock into the pot and cook on high until it boils.

Lower a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken into the pot and let it cook on medium heat for 40 minutes, remove the chicken and place it on a cookie sheet.

Take two forks and begin pulling all the chicken meat from the bones and throw the pulled chicken back into the pot.

Mince 3 to 4 Yukon Gold potatoes and add them into the pot.  Cut a lemon in half and squeeze the juice into the pot and throw the lemon halves into the pot afterwards. Pour a ½ cup to ¾ of a cup of pulp free orange juice into the pot then squirt in 4 or 5 drops of Tabasco sauce.  Simmer on low to medium heat for 30 minutes and add salt and pepper to taste. Mince 4 green onions and add them into the pot, chop up a ¼ bushel of fresh cilantro and sprinkle it on top of each bowl of soup when served.

This soup can be served with or without rice.  Rice will absorb much of the liquid so it’s better to prepare the rice on the side and then add it to each bowl when served.  Cook whatever rice you like best and prepare it however you prefer.
