Made this and it was delish. I added bacon, mushroom to it. Served it with a crusty roll. I used 500g chicken so i halved the stock.
Can you use breast instead of thigh? Thanks
Yes you can, I just find breast to be a more dry outcome
could you put breast in and shred it at the end? Would 4 hours high be okay or low 8 hours Is better? thanks
I’ve breast fillets and tenderloins before but find that thighs tend to stay moister than breast fillets.
You could do 4hrs high although we find long and slow cook (using low) gives a much better flavour overall and the chicken shreds nicely
I love this soup. I use a Thai flavoured chicken stock and add a little chilli for some heat. It freezes really well and is always a crowd pleaser.
Could you use chicken legs for this recipe? Thanks
Sure could Alison
omg the best chicken soup ever.
perfect on a cold winter night or be amazing when your under the weather.
Great feedback! Thanks Tanya 🙂
