Tinola, a comforting chicken soup seasoned with plenty of ginger and garlic, has countless variations throughout the Philippines. The soup calls for malunggay leaves (aka moringa), which can be found fresh or frozen at Asian markets. Bok choy is a good substitute. Feel free to increase the amounts of garlic and fish sauce for an even more flavorful soup. Serve this easy and healthy chicken soup on its own or with jasmine rice, quinoa or wild rice.

Provided by PrincesaBunati

Categories     For Large Groups

Time 1h20m

Yield 15-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 whole chicken
1 (12 ounce) package baby carrots (cut in 3)
1 stalk celery (diced)
3 small onions (diced)
1/2 large red cabbage (shredded)
16 ounces elbow macaroni
1/2 cup chicken bouillon
1/4 cup garlic powder
1 cup butter

Steps:

  • Cut the whole chicken in pieces. This will help it to cook faster! Boil chicken until cooked, then take them out and place them in a large bowl to cool. SAVE THE CHICKEN STOCK! (You will need this!)
  • As you're waiting for the chicken to cool down, start preping your veggies.
  • Slice the carrots in 3, dice the celery, dice the onion, and shred the cabbage. Set these all aside.
  • Now that the chicken is cooled down, shred it.
  • In a large stock pot, place 3/4 of a stick of butter into the pot to melt. Add the onions and cook until transparent, and then add the chicken and garlic powder to saute. When the chicken is all nice and aromatic with the onion and garlic --
  • POUR the stock into the pot. (I told you that you would need this!).
  • When it comes to a boil, add the carrots, celery, cabbage, macaroni (or shells) and chicken bullion. Mix it good!
  • Add the remaining butter to the soup. It will look like OIL, but it is not. This brings out the flavor of the soup!
  • Let simmer and when the macaroni (or shells) are all done, you're ready to eat it!
  • We always add CARNATION EVAPORATED MILK for a creamer soup, but it's all up to you. Most people don't like to do that becuase they THINK it will spoil. It's NOT fresh milk! So you can add it!
  • We usually serve this with GARLIC BREAD topped with Parmesan cheese!
  • This will become a favorite in your house too!

Tips:

  • Roast the chicken before simmering it. This will give the soup a deeper flavor and a golden color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and nutrients to the soup. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Add herbs and spices to taste. Some good choices include bay leaves, thyme, oregano, and black pepper.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
  • Serve the soup hot with rice or bread. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Chicken soup is a delicious and nutritious meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying pot of chicken soup that the whole family will enjoy.
