Chicken Soup with Charred Cabbage image

Simmering a rotisserie bird in water with a handful of aromatics beats boxed chicken stock any day. Plus, the mushroom stems are basically free flavor; add a handful to any pot of simmering stock for an umami boost.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cooked chicken carcass (from a store-bought rotisserie or homemade roast chicken), plus 1 1/2 cups shredded skinless roast chicken meat
8 oz. shiitake mushrooms, stems reserved, caps torn in half
6 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium head of green cabbage (about 1 lb.), cored, sliced into 1/2"-thick ribbons
Freshly ground black pepper
Chili oil (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Bring chicken carcass, shiitake stems, garlic, 1 tsp. salt, and 8 cups water to a boil in a large pot, skimming foam from surface as needed. Cover pot and reduce heat to medium. Simmer 15 minutes. Strain broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Rinse out pot, then pour broth back in.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook mushroom caps, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and softened, 7-9 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a plate; season with salt.
  • Add cabbage to same skillet, press into an even layer, and cook, undisturbed, 2 minutes; season with salt. Turn cabbage with tongs, then continue to cook, undisturbed, until lightly charred and tender in some spots and still crisp in others, about 2 minutes.
  • Add mushrooms, cabbage, and shredded chicken to broth and cook over medium heat just until chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Season soup with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and drizzle with chili oil if desired.
