This Mexican rooster soup recipe will ward off the winter blues.
Why? Properly to begin with it’s scorching! Nothing like scorching soup to heat you from the within when the temperatures are low. Secondly, not like my Low Carb Hen Vegetable Soup and Gradual Cooker Italian Hen, Quinoa & Vegetable Soup, this Mexican soup has chili powder in it which can assist you clear your sinuses.
Hen soup is a necessity for colds and maintaining hydrated throughout the dry winter. I’m fairly certain that I eat it a number of instances every week in January and February.
I created this Mexican Hen Soup for my e-book and it’s a staple in my family. It’s tremendous simple to make and scrumptious. That is the kind of recipe you can find all through my e-book as a result of I’m approach 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’ll be able to’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!). After 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 an alternative of noodles.
I freeze it in single serving containers for after I desire a gentle lunch (solely 216 energy per serving).
For my children, I add cheese and a few crushed tortillas as they want garnishes to take pleasure in this soup. You too can add scorching sauce, avocadoes, cilantro, or black beans to create extra of a chili.
This soup retains properly within the fridge and even improves over time.
