Warming Chicken Noodle Soup

Directions

1. Heat 1 ½ tablespoon of oil in a large stock pot over MED heat. Sauté the onion and half the Winter Soup Mix for 2 minutes until soft and translucent. Add half of the carrot and celery. Cook for 5 minutes.

2. Place the chicken in the bottom of the pot, fill with 2.5L of cold water or enough to cover the chicken and gently stir. Bring the heat up to boil.

   
   

3. Reduce the heat to MED. Cook for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked. While simmering, skim the impurities from the surface. After approximately 20 minutes, turn the chicken to ensure all sides cook.
