Time 1h

Yield 3 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 24

4 tablespoons ghee or clarified butter
1 1/2 pounds diced boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 tablespoons garam masala
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
2 cups small diced onions
1/2 cup small diced carrots
1/2 cup small diced celery
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced ginger
2 cups peeled, cored and diced Granny Smith apples
1 cup peeled and diced Yukon gold potatoes
1 cup peeled and diced sweet potatoes
1 cup dried red lentils
6 cups chicken or beef stock
3/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup diced zucchini
3/4 cup diced yellow squash
1 cup tightly packed baby spinach
1 (14-ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup peeled, seeded and chopped tomatoes
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
3 cups steamed white basmati rice
1/2 cup toasted, finely ground cashews
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Set a 4 or 5-quart saucepan over medium heat and add the ghee. While the ghee is heating, season the chicken with the garam masala and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Once the ghee is hot, add the chicken and cook, turning often, until golden brown and fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside to cool.
  • While the chicken is cooling, add the onions, carrots and celery to the hot pan and saute until lightly caramelized, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and apples to the pan and saute until the apples are caramelized, about 7 to 8 minutes. Add the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and lentils to the pan, along with 4 cups of the chicken stock. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook the soup until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Add the reserved chicken, the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, the pepper, remaining 2 cups of chicken stock, zucchini, squash, spinach, coconut milk, and tomatoes. Continue to cook the soup at a simmer until the lentils and chicken are both tender, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Remove from the heat and stir in the cider vinegar. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. To serve the soup, place 1/4 cup of the rice in a warmed bowl, and pour 8 ounces of the soup over the rice, garnish with a tablespoon of the cashews, and 2 teaspoons of the cilantro.

This soup was a huge disappointment. It was bland, watery, and the chicken was overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well. I won't be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this soup was surprisingly mild. The flavors were very well-balanced and I really enjoyed it. I'll definitely be making it again.

This soup is the perfect way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. I love that it's made with healthy ingredients and it's still so flavorful.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I also found the texture to be a bit too thick. I would have preferred it to be a bit more brothy.

I've made this soup several times and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and the flavors are incredible. I love the addition of the apples and raisins. They give the soup a unique sweetness that really balances out the spices.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper. Otherwise, the flavors were great and it was a very satisfying meal.
