Recipe Introduction


The Italians believe that chicken soup helps get rid of the common cold. If it don't, well, hey, its pretty delicious and the taste makes you forget about the cold for awhile.




List of Ingredients




2 Quart Cold Water
3 Carrots sliced in thin rounds
3 Celery Stalks, some with leaves, chopped
1 Small red or green pepper chopped (optional)
1/4 chicken, washed
1/4 Cup Chopped fresh Parsley
1/2 Small Onion, chopped
Potatoes (Optional)
Salt & Pepper & Oregano to taste

Recipe



Add the water to a pot, add all the ingredients, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so it simmers for an hour or two. I usually simmer mine for 1.5 hours. Some add pasta (cooked separately) or chicken stock if it does not have enough flavor. In any case, when its ready to serve, serve it with grated romano cheese on top and croutons or garlic bread or toast to dunk.
