Chicken and star soup

Light and satisfying, aromatic and amazingly tasty. But so simple and unpretentious, familiar to everyone since childhood. After all, it is children who are most willing to eat this kind of soup - with stars. It can be not only chicken, but also dairy and vegetable. And of course, homemade soup cannot be compared with country soup from bags, in appearance - yes, the same stars, but the benefits and satiety are completely different, and there are few calories.

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking timeCooking time: 1 hr 10 mins
  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    Prepare BROTH. Place the washed chicken in cold water (the skin can be removed at your discretion). Add 1/2 onion, 1/4 carrot, green stems. Bring to a boil over high heat.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    At this time, start cleaning and cutting vegetables. I grate the carrots on a Korean grater, but you can use a regular coarse grater or cut into strips. Bell peppers are also cut into strips. I cut the potatoes into medium cubes as you like. Onions and greens - finely.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Remove the foam from the boiling broth, reduce heat, add a little salt and cook until the chicken is cooked, 25-30 minutes. Cook covered or slightly opened. Adjust the heat so that the broth does not splash out, but gurgles confidently.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Preparing FRYING. Pour oil into a well-heated frying pan, heat it and fry the onion until transparent. Then add carrots, mix and add pepper. Pour in 2-3 tbsp. broth, cover with a lid and let simmer for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Remove the fully cooked chicken from the broth. Let cool, remove skin and separate meat from bones. Cut the meat into small pieces/one bite/.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Strain the broth and return to the stove, bring to a boil.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Add potatoes to boiling broth and reduce heat to medium. Cook for 10 minutes.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Then return the chopped meat to the pan and bring to a gentle boil.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Load the roast, stir. The potatoes should be almost ready by this time. 5-7 minutes before it’s ready, add the star pasta / or cobwebs /. In 3-5 minutes, add bay leaf and herbs, if necessary, add salt.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Turn off the stove, cover the pan with a lid and let the soup brew for about 15 minutes. That’s it! Fragrant, hot, just cooked soup will be the most delicious! That is why I cook it a little, so that the family eats it right away and doesn’t have any leftovers. After all, it doesn’t sit for long, a good broth thickens, and the stars swell greatly, losing their attractiveness.

Blue-eyed, congratulations to you too! Soup with stars... About childhood - this is to the point. I remember they used to sell soup in packs, and there was a cow drawn on the pack. There the noodles were in the shape of stars. How delicious was this soup from childhood. Maybe his mother didn’t cook it that often; all the soups were homemade. You will need to look for such vermicelli in the store and cook such soup. Remember your childhood.
