ULTIMATE FLU-BUSTING CHICKEN SOUP
This chicken soup is good for your soul and your health. Made from scratch, it's packed with ingredients to boost your immune system and ward off the illness. What it's not packed with is fat and empty calories. Reasearchers at the University of Nebraska found that homemade Chicken soup really does make you feel better when your sick. It reduces congestion and inflammation by limiting the movement of white blood cells that produce infection-related mucus. The result? Fewer sniffles. This version also harnesses the healthy power of tomatoes, potatoes, and garlic. Published in our local paper.

Steps:
- Put chicken, celery, 2 cloves garlic, 1 cup carrots, the oregano sprig and half the onion into a large pot. Fill pot with cold water, 2 inches above ingredients; put over high heat. When water boils, cover and reduce heat to medium. Simmer 1 hour.
- Set aside chicken to cool and discard all veggies and herbs. Strain broth into a large bowl, skim fat from top, and set aside.
- Put oil, jalapeno, the chopped oregano leaves, 2 remaining garlic cloves (minced) and the remaining half onion (chopped) into a large pot. Cook at medium heat until vegetables are just soft, about 5 minutes. Turn heat to high; add broth, potatoes and remaining carrots. When broth boils, reduce heat to medium. Cook until potatoes and carrots are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Remove skin and bones from chicken. Shred meat into bite-sized pieces. Add chicken, tomatoes, salt and pepper to soup. Cook until warm.

SUPER SIMPLE CHICKEN SOUP
Just what it says... really simple and quick. I change amounts as I add them to the pot if I think I need a little more of anything. This is a very forgiving recipe and a great base for additions.

Steps:

- Cook (medium boil) for 15 minutes or until carrots are done enough for you.

- *You can add more cornstarch mixture if you would like it thicker. I like mine somewhere between a soup and a stew consistency.*.
SIMPLE CHICKEN SOUP
This comfort food classic is just as flavorful and soul-satisfying as Grandma's chicken soup, but where hers took several hours-or a day-to make, ours takes under an hour. Instead of long-simmered stock, we start with store-bought chicken broth and water but enrich them with stock vegetables and the carcass, bones and meat of a leftover roast chicken.

Steps:
- Put the bones and carcass from a leftover chicken (they can be in pieces) in a large pot. Cover with the broth and 4 cups water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Skim any foam or fat from the broth with a ladle as necessary.
- Remove the bones and carcass with tongs or a slotted spoon; set aside to cool. Add the carrots, celery, onion and bay leaf to the broth, bring back to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are about half cooked (they will still have resistance when tested with a knife but be somewhat pliable when bent), about 10 minutes. Stir in the rice (to keep it from sticking to the bottom), and cook until the grains are just al dente, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, when the carcass and bones are cool enough to handle, pick off the meat, and shred it into bite-size pieces.
- When the rice is done, add the meat to the broth and simmer until warmed through, about 1 minute. Stir in the parsley, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt or more to taste. Serve hot.

SUPER SIMPLE CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SICKLY
A low-effort way to make chicken soup for those times when you need it, but don't feel like putting in the effort. You can of course substitute the herbs for whatever you have lying around or like, but I like the lemongrass because it helps open up the sinuses.

Steps:
- Rinse the meat in cold water (bones, skin, and all), and put into the pot.
- Rinse the vegetables, but do NOT peel them.
- Cut the onion and potato in half only, cut the top leaves off the leek and celery (but don't throw away) and chop the rest of them, along with the carrot.
- Add everything, including the tops of the celery and leek as well as the herbs, to the pot with the meat.
- Pour in 6-8 cups of water, enough to just cover the contents of the pot. Bring to a boil, and then turn down to simmer on very low heat and cover.
- Leave to simmer for about an hour and a half. Go sleep and watch TV and other sickly resting activities.
- Skim the chicken fat off the top of the soup with a spoon and discard.
- Removed the chicken with tongs, let cool for a few minutes, and remove the skin. Return the meat and bones to the pot.
- Add the tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. This brings out the calcium in the bones.
- Simmer for another 15 minutes or so, add salt and pepper to taste, and enjoy.

BASIC CHICKEN SOUP
Everyone has their own favorite chicken soup recipe, but rarely have so few ingredients added up to so much comfort. This version has classic flavors and, thanks to a simplified method, cooks more quickly than traditional chicken soups (the dish is ready in a little over an hour). There's no need to make a separate stock; the vegetables and meat form their own satisfying broth.

Loosely wrap and cover it with the foil. Cover the baking dish and bake for 35 - 40 minutes until the garlic is softened and caramelized.
