Cream Of Turkey Or Chicken Soup
From debbie919 17 years ago
- 95 minutes to make
- Serves 12
Plain, uncomplicated comfort food; wonderful on a rainy./chilly day or just anytime! This came from another site, but I've tweaked it some.
Ingredients
- 1 turkey or large chicken carcass (like an oven stuffer roaster) shopping list
- 4 qts. water shopping list
- 2 large carrots, peeled and diced, parboiled shopping list
- 2 small onions, peeled and diced shopping list
- 2 large stalks celery, peeled and diced shopping list
- 1 cup butter shopping list
- 1 cup flour shopping list
- 2 cups half and half shopping list
- 1 1/2 cups instant rice shopping list
How to make it
- Boil carcass in 4 qts. water for 1 hour.
- Remove carcass from broth, and reserve 3 qts. of broth for soup.
- Take meat off the bones and reserve.
- Melt butter in your soup pot, add onion and celery, cook until veggies are tender.
- Add flour to butter and veggies; blend well, then add 1 qt. reserved stock and cook until thick.
- Add remainder of stock, the parboiled carrots, half and half, meat, and rice.
- Simmer for 30 to 35 min. until rice is soft.
- The original recipe called for the carrots to be sauteed with other veggies, but they weren't soft enough for me.
- Also, it called for 1 c. regular rice, but I found it wanted to stick to the bottom of the pot. The instant works perfectly.
- I add extra meat to mine as well, to equal about 2 1/2 cups.
