0:23
creamy chicken soup you're always going
0:25
to need celery carrots and onion my kids
0:29
need this right here they're down and
0:32
out with bad weather right now when we
0:34
make this soup we're going to take half
0:35
of it over to them so they can get some
0:37
good stuff in them that's not chicken
0:43
wings all right y'all come on down here
0:45
let's go ahead and get our vegetables
0:46
going add some nice flavor and when I
0:48
say easy y'all going to find out come on
0:52
down I have a large yellow onion I'm
0:55
just going to take off both ends peel
0:57
off that outer layer and dice it up
1:04
let's talk about that delicious celery
1:06
you can get the celery that has all
1:10
it makes it look really pretty doesn't
1:13
it usually you can find the leafy part
1:15
of it in the inside of your Celery Stock
1:19
look at those all right we're going to
1:21
chop these up die siiz pieces I'm going
1:24
to go with four carrots these are medium
1:26
carrots I'm just going to peel them take
1:28
the ends off we're going to dice them up
1:29
like we did the onion and the celery and
1:32
I'm going to use the fastest
1:33
peeler in the kitchen all right you want
1:38
about a cup of the yellow onion a cup of
1:41
carrots diced and then a cup of celery
1:44
diced let's go ahead and start sautéing
1:47
down I've got a large Dutch oven I've
1:51
placed it on a medium high heat we're
1:54
in 5 tablespoons of butter
2:00
it was going to add flavor and help
2:12
four and five you want to make sure you
2:15
get this nice and melted kind of bring
2:17
it to a Sizzle here that
2:20
Sizzle start adding our vegetables
2:38
in oh look at that that looks pretty
2:45
oo smells amazing in there those
2:50
Aromas we're going to cook this down for
2:53
about 5 to 7even minutes till our
2:55
veggies are nice and soft now we're
2:58
looking to get the onions and celery
3:00
nice and soft the carrots will take a
3:04
bit longer but they'll finish cooking
3:06
along the way so just get them partially
3:10
cooked in there while this is cooking go
3:12
ahead and get your garlic ready I'm
3:14
going to be mincing fresh garlic that I
3:16
have right here in just a minute so but
3:20
if you're going to use the Jarred garlic
3:22
you can use that that's totally fine
3:24
it's garlic but it's just sits longer in
3:27
the oil there and it kind of loses it's
3:30
freshness that's why I like to put fresh
3:32
garlic in the soup and lots of it it'll
3:36
fix what's ailing you oh y'all that's
3:40
what you want right there the onions are
3:44
translucent celery is soft carrots about
3:47
halfway there perfect let's mince our
4:01
yeah that smells good we're going to
4:03
cook the garlic in here for one minute
4:06
let it release its aromatics into the
4:10
vegetables and you're really going to
4:12
start smelling it it's going to be good
4:15
we're going to start flavoring it up now
4:18
we want the soup to thicken because it
4:20
is a creamy chicken soup and usually
4:21
those are a little thicker than just a
4:23
regular chicken soup people tend to put
4:26
flour in it and use that as a thickener
4:28
and then add flavor to that that there
4:30
are people out there that don't have
4:31
flour or cook with flour they're always
4:33
looking for a simpler way so I've got
4:36
cans of condensed cream of
4:39
soups they're both 10 oz each both of
4:42
them are going in I've got one can of
4:45
cream of celery that'll really enhance
4:47
that celery that's in the
4:50
soup and then I have a can of cream of
4:54
chicken it'll enhance that chicken we're
4:57
going to put in the soup
5:00
all right let's add these
5:08
in that smells good now I'm going to add
5:12
in a little bit of poultry
5:15
seasoning that's really good for
5:19
chicken let me about a quarter
5:22
wo to half a teaspoon there and then I'm
5:26
going to add some black pepper now I'm
5:29
not going to add any salt we'll check
5:31
that later just because we added the
5:33
cream of soups and we're going to add
5:40
around we're going to start
5:42
incorporating our broth now start really
5:45
getting that soup flavored up now I'm
5:48
going to be putting in about six
5:56
broth now you can make your own broth if
5:58
you want to by using some better than
6:01
bullion but I'm going to go ahead and
6:03
use these two boxes that I left over
6:06
holidays so that was four that went in
6:09
then I'm going to put in half of this
6:10
box which will give us the
6:12
six cups and if we need any more later
6:15
we'll have some left over in the Box
6:18
here which we may do all right let's
6:21
combine all this together I'm going to
6:26
heat we're going to bring this to a boil
6:29
why while that happens let me talk to
6:31
you about the chicken we're going to
6:33
give it a little taste just to make sure
6:35
that our seasonings are where we want
6:39
them oh wow I'm ready for a bowl
6:44
now the saltiness of it is just
6:48
perfect that poultry seasoning don't
6:52
butter okay let's talk about the chicken
6:55
we want fully cooked chicken for this
6:58
recipe now because I knew I was going to
7:00
make this soup I went ahead and just
7:02
made my own baked chicken it's in my
7:04
recipe blog cther plates.com you just
7:07
cook it in the oven at 425° for about 25
7:10
minutes thin out your chicken breast
7:13
season it up really well with a little
7:15
bit of some cooking oil in there lay
7:17
them flat in a baking dish pop it in the
7:19
oven that recipe can be found in my
7:22

7:27
going in now this is chicken bread
7:29
breast nice and seasoned if you don't
7:31
want to oven bake your chicken you can
7:33
use rotisserie chickens for this you
7:36
probably need about two of them based on
7:38
the size that you get nowadays or you
7:41
can put your chicken in a crock pot you
7:43
can put it in your instant pot you can
7:46
boil your chicken just make sure you
7:48
give it some flavor what went into mine
7:51
was salt pepper paprika gave it a nice
7:54
little color and smokiness and then
7:56
onion powder and garlic powder so just
7:59

8:25
seasoning and I'm going to be adding in
8:28
