Wheat soup with chicken

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to cook wheat cereal soup with chicken? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. If desired, you can use pork, turkey or beef for the broth. I took chicken meat.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the chicken in running water, place in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Place on the stove, bring to a boil, drain the broth, and wash the pan. Pour in clean water, place the washed chicken in it, bring to a boil again, remove the foam with a slotted spoon if necessary and cook the meat until tender, about 40 minutes.

3. STEP 3

   

   While the broth is cooking, let's take care of the vegetables. Wash the carrots, peel them, cut into slices. You can cut it in any other way you are familiar with. Set it aside, we'll come back to it in the next steps.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the onion, wash, dry, cut into small cubes. Set aside until the broth is ready.

5. STEP 5

   

   When the chicken is cooked, you can remove it from the broth, separate it into fibers and return it to the soup, or you can leave it in it and do it later. Add chopped carrots and onions. Cook them for 5 minutes. If you wish, you can fry onions and carrots. I didn’t do this because the children would eat the soup.

6. STEP 6

   

   Wash the potatoes thoroughly, peel and cut into cubes or slices and add to the soup.

7. STEP 7

   

   Rinse the cereal in several waters until the water is clear and add to the soup. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are soft (7-10 minutes). 5 minutes before the end of cooking, salt the soup and add your favorite spices.

8. STEP 8

   

   Wash the dill in running water, dry, chop with a knife, add to the soup, bring to a boil and immediately turn off and cover the pan with a lid.

9. STEP 9

   

   Let the soup brew for 5-10 minutes, pour it into bowls and serve. Bon appetit!

I make this soup, it’s delicious. You can add corn grits instead of wheat grits.

For the first course I made wheat soup with chicken. I boiled the chicken and made soup using the broth following the recipe, only I didn’t add suneli hops, I just put in a bay leaf. The soup is cooked simply and quickly. It turned out delicious, the kids ate it well! Great for a variety of first courses.

I always fry vegetables in soup. Without roasting, they are tasteless, in my opinion!

This is a matter of taste)) We love light soups, and besides, we have small children for whom it is too early to eat fried food. Yes, and I watch my figure, count calories and exercise, so I remove excess fats from my diet.

There are fat-soluble vitamins that, in the absence of fat, are not absorbed by the body. And nutritionists have recently advised cutting down not on fats, but on carbohydrates, especially for women. But of course, it’s a personal matter for everyone, what exactly and how to cook and eat!

Agree. Vitamin A, for example, has retinol (animal origin), and carotene (vegetable). It’s just carotene that doesn’t disengage; it needs fat for company. But there is a second point. During cooking, carotene is destroyed by 50%, and when frying, its structure is damaged by 100%, so vitamin A cannot be fried at all. the result is a useless product. But if we follow all the laws of preparing and preserving vitamins, then we will have very little tasty left :) Regarding BJU. My BJU norm is 108/44/146, respectively. That is, only 44 grams of pure fat per day. A tablespoon of vegetable oil contains 15 grams of fat, which is actually a third of my daily requirement. Instead, you can eat 160 grams of cottage cheese with a fat content of 9%. This is a portion that can fill you up and get your healthy fat from a dairy product. And you won’t get enough of a spoonful of butter (or you can, for example, grind that very same grated raw carrot, poured with 50 grams of medium-fat sour cream and get the maximum amount of carotene, since it will be released due to the fat that is in the sour cream. And I completely agree with you about carbohydrates. Experience shows that they need to be rationally reduced. But what’s the problem, you also need to reduce correctly. There are fast and slow carbohydrates, which are consumed at certain times of the day to maximize their “use” by the body. Carbohydrates are almost everything! These are plant foods, this cereals, bread, sweets, etc. If you look at it, we need vegetables and fruits, we also need cereals and bread as a source of healthy fiber and B vitamins. But it would seem that we don’t need sweets. They can be removed. But then our female body suffers. Hormonal levels change, and with it everything else (health, and especially mood). It turns out that we also need sweets, just depending on what sweets we eat and depending on what time. Nutrition in general is a very complex topic. I have been studying this topic for more than 8 years and I understand that there is still a lot that is not understood. Our body is such a unique thing, especially our metabolism. Something is slightly missing and the mechanism malfunctions(

In my opinion, the calorie content was calculated incorrectly, since the weight of the broth was not taken into account...
