CHICKEN SOUP WITH ADZUKI BEANS, ESCAROLE, AND SWEET POTATO
This absolutely delicious soup was created to help use up the Adzuki beans, wild rice, and sweet potatoes in my pantry. I decided to use the sweet potato instead of regular potatoes, and was delightfully surprised by the wonderful flavor blend it created with the sweetness of the onions, garlic, and Adzuki beans. I also wanted to try escarole in a soup, and the result was fantastic. Adzuki beans are found in any health food or specialty store, and in many national grocery chains. They have a great nutty, slightly sweet taste, and are especially tasty added to chicken soups of any kind.

Steps:
- Place the chicken broth in a large pot. Mix in the chicken thighs, adzuki beans, wild rice, onions, and garlic. Season with sage, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook 1 hour.
- Remove chicken from the pot, shred with a fork, and set aside.
- Stir the sweet potato into the pot. Continue cooking about 5 minutes, until sweet potato is slightly tender. Mix in the zucchini, yellow squash, and escarole. Continue cooking 15 minutes.
- Return the shredded chicken to the pot. Cook until heated through. Increase the amount of broth if the soup seems too thick.

[email protected]This soup was a little bland for my taste, but I think that's because I didn't add enough salt and pepper. Other than that, it was a great soup. The adzuki beans and sweet potato added a nice sweetness, and the escarole gave it a bit of a bitter edge
