Rassolnik with chicken classic

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 15 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a classic pickle with chicken? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. You can use any part of the chicken for cooking. I have chicken thighs and some fillet. Peel and rinse the potatoes in advance. Soak the pearl barley for 20 minutes in cold water in advance.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the chicken and place in a cooking pot. Fill with cold water and put on fire. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes. Then separate the meat from the bones and return it to the broth. Rinse the pearl barley several times in cold water. Then fill with clean water and cook in parallel with the chicken. It is better to cook the pearl barley separately so that the broth in the soup does not become cloudy. Bring the barley to a boil and cook for 25-30 minutes. Then drain in a colander.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the peeled potatoes into small pieces. Cucumbers can be chopped or grated on a coarse grater. I prefer the second option. Add potatoes and cucumbers to the pan with the chicken. Leave to cook for 10 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   At this time, peel the onions and carrots. Finely chop the onion and grate the carrots. Fry the vegetables for 3-5 minutes with the addition of vegetable oil.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the finished roast into the soup.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add pearl barley to the soup. You can add bay leaf for flavor. Add salt and spices to the soup to taste. Boil everything together for another 15-20 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   At the end of cooking, add fresh herbs. I add dill. It perfectly complements the flavor of the soup. Pour the finished soup into bowls and serve hot. Bon appetit!

I'm making classic rassolnik with chicken. We love rassolnik, so I cook pearl barley in a slow cooker for several rassolniks at once and freeze it. So today I found this preparation useful. Otherwise, I cooked according to the author’s recipe; it’s interesting to cook a familiar, familiar dish a little differently than usual))) It turned out to be a very tasty pickle! Thank you, Julia M.!
