Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup (porridge)

Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 45 min
Total Time: 50 min
Servings: 8 cups, 4-5 large bowls

Cookware Needed:

  • Large Stock/Soup Pot
  • Frying Pan or Air Fryer

Grocery List:

  • 1 Tbsp butter
  • 1 lb Boneless Chicken Breast
  • 3-4 Celery Stalks
  • 2-3 Large Carrots
  • 1 Yellow Onion
  • 1 Garlic Clove
  • 8 Cups Chicken Broth or Bouillon
  • 6oz (1 Package) Long Grain & Wild Rice
  • 1 Cup Heavy Cream or Whole Milk

Recipe:

  1. Wash the veggies
  2. Cut the Celery and carrots into 1/8″ slices and dice the onion, then sauté for 15-20 minutes in the butter, until soft. While the veggies are sautéing, cook the chicken breast.
    • I usually do the air fryer 370F for 13 minutes, but pan frying or grilling works too
  3. Add the Long Grain & Wild Rice to the pot of sautéing veggies to brown it for a minute
  4. Add 8 cups of Chicken Broth and 1 Cup of Heavy Cream
    • You can substitute whole milk, I add about a tablespoon of flour for thickening
  5. Cut and add the chicken to the pot and bring to a boil for 10 minutes.
  6. Simmer for an additional 20 minutes or until dinner time
