Hi Guys, Darren here. Back again to give you some more dinner inspiration. Now I’m excited to show you my version of a classic combo. Chicken, sweet corn and rice soup.
Now I’m going make a large batch of this because let’s face it left-overs are not a bad thing.
First I’m going to rinse 200g of jasmine rice. And then I’m going to add it to a large pot.
Now here’s a tip for ginger. I always peel a little bit more and I used what I need. Then with that little bit left over don’t let it go soft in the fridge. Pop it into a container and put it in the freezer. It’s perfect for next time. Ok I’m going to put a couple of slices maybe 10g ginger into my pot.
I’ve got about 4 or 5 Spring onions here. I’m just gonna trim the green part off. I’m going to keep this for later on and just chop these up. And add these to the pot as well.
Now for the star of our show I’ve got some beautiful Aussie, Free Range Chicken. I’ve got two skinless breasts there and I’ve got two chicken marylands with the skin on. I like to combine cuts to give me extra flavour and extra value.
Now to sweet corn. We’re going to cut the kernals. And we’re going to add those to the pot as well. Chicken and sweet corn. Such a classic combination. So delicious and so affordable! We’re just going to season it with a little bit of salt. And now we’re going to top off with 2 litres of chicken stock.
We’re going to turn the pot on to medium heat. Bring it to the boil and we’re going to simmer it for about 30-40 minutes. I think that’s going to give me just enough time to do a little bit of housework maybe some ISO exercise.
OK just have a quick check on our pot. As it starts to come to a rapid boil turn the heat down to a gentle simmer. It’s been simmering for a while now the rice is still in tact. It’s starting to break down a little bit and that’s how I like it. Now what I’m going to do is I’m going to remove the chicken using these tongs on to this plate. Ok the chicken has cooled down slightly so now I’m going to pick off the meat, put it back into the pan and then I’m going to put the pan on the stove bring to the boil and then it’s ready to serve. Ahhh smells great. Now I’ve got all my bits to finish.
Got some ginger, finely sliced spring onions, secret ingredient ground white pepper and some sesame oil, coriander, some light soy and a bit of chilli in mine so that’s going on top.
So this is my chicken, rice and sweet corn soup. For more recipes like this visit Coles.com.au.
