This Mexican rooster soup recipe will thrust back the winter blues.
Why? Properly to begin with it’s sizzling! Nothing like sizzling soup to heat you from the within when the temperatures are low. Secondly, not like my Low Carb Hen Vegetable Soup and Sluggish Cooker Italian Hen, Quinoa & Vegetable Soup, this Mexican soup has chili powder in it which is able to show you how to clear your sinuses.
Hen soup is a necessity for colds and conserving hydrated through the dry winter. I’m fairly certain that I eat it a number of occasions every week in January and February.
I created this Mexican Hen Soup for my guide and it’s a staple in my family. It’s tremendous simple to make and scrumptious. That is the kind of recipe you’ll find all through my guide as a result of I’m manner too busy to spend hours within the kitchen.
That is actually a toss it within the pan and it’s finished kinda dish.
Hen soup is a wholesome consolation meals. You may’t say that about ice cream or potato chips (sadly). Most rooster soups are pretty bland and have noodles and broth – which is great more often than not.
This soup is each colourful and flavorful (a feast for the eyes and the stomach!). Once I become bored with common rooster noodle soup, I make this “Mexican” rooster soup as a result of it’s spicy and has corn as a substitute of noodles.
I freeze it in single serving containers for once I desire a mild lunch (solely 216 energy per serving).
For my youngsters, I add cheese and a few crushed tortillas as they want garnishes to get pleasure from this soup. You can even add sizzling sauce, avocadoes, cilantro, or black beans to create extra of a chili.
This soup retains properly within the fridge and even improves over time.
