Recipe Introduction
This is hearty with a lot of texture. You can really change the taste of the soup depending on what kind of chicken you use. Poached chicken yields a good flavor, whereas roasted chicken offers a more complex taste.
List of Ingredients
Wild Rice Chowder
2 tablespoons margarine
1 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 1/2 cups uncooked wild rice
8 cups chicken stock
1 bay leaves
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup boneless chicken breast
half, cooked and diced
salt and pepper to taste
Recipe
1 Melt the butter or margarine in a large pot over medium
heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots and saute for 5 to
10 minutes, or until onion is translucent and carrots
start to get tender.
2 Add the rice and stir to coat. Then add the chicken
stock and the bay leaf. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1
hour, or until rice is tender, stirring occasionally.
3 Add the heavy cream and puree 2 cups of the soup in a
blender or food processor. Return this to the pot and add the
chicken. Stir well and allow to heat through. Season with salt
and pepper to taste
