A thick chicken soup that draws raves every time I serve it. Because of the thickness, it goes great in bread bowls.

Time 8h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup uncooked wild rice
1 cup water
1 cup water
3 tablespoons butter
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed
1 onion, diced
½ cup chopped celery
2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
2 ⅔ cups milk
1 (14.5 ounce) can sliced carrots
3 tablespoons sliced almonds
5 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons dried parsley

Steps:

  • Soak rice in 1 cup water for 6 to 8 hours. Drain.
  • Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in drained rice. Boil until water level dips below rice, 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, onion and celery in butter until browned and slightly crispy, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a large pot, combine cream of chicken soup, milk, chicken mixture, carrots, almonds, 5 tablespoons butter and parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring, then reduce heat to low and stir in rice. Simmer, uncovered, 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding more water or milk to thin if needed. Serve at once.

This soup is way too salty. I would recommend using half the amount of salt that the recipe calls for.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too thick. I had to add more broth to thin it out.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I would add more salt and pepper, and maybe some additional herbs and spices.

This soup is delicious! I love the combination of flavors and textures. The chicken is tender, the rice is fluffy, and the vegetables are perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this soup again.

I've made this soup several times now and it's always a hit with my family and friends. It's so easy to make, and it's always delicious. I usually add a bit more garlic and onion, and I also like to use a mix of white and wild rice.
