I made the recipe for the first time tonight and followed it exactly as written and it turned out great! Based on the reviews, I thought it would need more salt or seasoning but it was actually perfect with 4 tsp coarse kosher salt.

I usually pull the skin off in sheets, season it, crisp it up in cast iron and serve it as a sort of chicken cracker topping. Great as written but thyme, parsley, and/or chives also work for those that don't love dill. Love this one and have made it many times. A lot simpler than the one I’ve been making, which included roasting.Įxcellent recipe, thanks Molly! Such simple ingredients, a lot of steps, but big flavour payoff! Definitely going to make this again. Love it! Didn’t have dill, still smells and tastes delicious. This is the chicken soup recipe you want! The dill was a welcome but subtle freshness, too. I did sub one container of unsalted chicken stock in for 4 cups of the water - the broth was so rich with deep color and a gelatinous texture once refrigerated. Worth the bit of extra effort for such a rich and nourishing soup. And, if you prefer a variation on chicken soup with rice and the simplicity of using boneless chicken thighs, this gingery version is nourishing and deeply comforting.Įditor’s note: This recipe was originally published January 5, 2020. If you’re looking to add another chicken soup recipe to your repertoire, try this one with rice noodles, scallion crisp, and an herby finish. We wouldn’t be mad about orzo, ABCs, fregola, or even tortellini.

Dill lends bright, herbal flavor, but you could use fresh thyme, oregano, or a few bay leaves if you prefer. Vegetables require more consideration than just cooking to mush alongside the chicken, so we discard the ones that build the broth, then swap in a second round of celery and carrots that cook just until tender.

The key is to treat the breasts and legs of a whole chicken differently: The breasts need to be pulled from the simmering broth early so they don’t dry out, whereas the legs require a little more time to become tender. This is the long game, and the results are worth it! The golden-hued soup is about as classic (and as comforting) as they come. There are tons of weeknight shortcuts that we could have snuck into a homemade chicken noodle soup recipe, but this time we’re not cutting corners.
