Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 chicken legs, skinned
1 large onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 hot chile pepper, seeded and minced
⅓ red bell pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups chicken stock
2 pounds name root, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 ears fresh corn, cut in thirds
2 stalks celery, sliced
2 carrots, sliced
2 tablespoons recaito (such as Goya®)
2 tablespoons sofrito (such as Goya®)
4 cilantro leaves, minced
½ cup orzo pasta
1 teaspoon oregano leaves

Steps:

  • Place chicken legs in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, green bell pepper, hot chile pepper, red bell pepper, and garlic; cover pot and cook until soft, about 30 minutes.
  • Pour chicken stock into the saucepan and bring to a boil; simmer until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, at least 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Add name root, corn, celery, carrots, recaito, sofrito, and cilantro. Cook soup until vegetables soft, at least 30 minutes more.
  • Stir orzo and oregano into the soup; cook until pasta is tender, about 15 minutes.

This soup was just okay. The broth was a bit bland and the chicken was a bit dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Overall, this soup was good. The broth was flavorful and the chicken was tender. However, I found the vegetables to be a bit overcooked. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This soup was a disappointment. The broth was bland and the chicken was dry. I think I didn't cook it long enough. I'll try again next time and see if I can get it right.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder. Otherwise, it was a great soup. The broth was flavorful and the chicken was tender.
