Hearty Chicken and Potato Soup
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, diced
  • 1 pinch seasoned salt, or to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 large russet potatoes, quartered and thinly sliced
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat the cooking vessel by heating oil over a moderate to high heat level. Prepare the protein component by sprinkling it with a blend of spices and seasonings, then introduce it into the pot. Continue to cook this main ingredient while stirring occasionally until it reaches a fully cooked state, characterized by the absence of pink coloration in its center. This process should take approximately 5 minutes.
2
Introduce the aromatics into the pot, specifically an onion, and allow it to cook until it has lost most of its raw color. This step should also take around 5 minutes. Next, add a minced form of garlic and continue to cook until it has developed a light brown hue. This process should take approximately 2 minutes.
3
Mix in the liquid component, which includes a broth and water, along with several root vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and celery. Allow these ingredients to cook until they have reached a tender state, which typically takes between 15 to 20 minutes. Finally, taste the dish and make any necessary adjustments to its seasoning with salt, pepper, and a touch of heat from cayenne.
