Dear Friends,
I am sharing a recipe which I learnt from a local chef while I was in São Paulo. It s a traditional chicken and rice soup which is very simple to prepare and is delicious to eat.
Ingredients to prepare:
300G. Chicken breast (fine shredded)
2T. Olive oil
2 ½ C. Vegetables (chopped, I used carrots, peas, sweet corn & beans)
½ C. Spring onion (chopped)
¾ C. Rice
¼ C. Coriander (chopped)
04 Eggs (white separated)
01 Onion (chopped)
03 Garlic cloves (minced)
10 C. Chicken broth
Salt & pepper
Method:
In a pot add olive oil and sauté onions with garlic till fragrant. Add the shredded chicken and cook on medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once the chicken starts turning white, add the rice and roast along for few minutes.
Now add the chicken stock, chopped vegetables and check for seasonings. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover the pot. Let it simmer till the rice is cooked.
Once the rice is done add the chopped coriander and egg whites while stirring it.
Pour it in a bowl, garnish with a lime slice and enjoy!
