Chicken broth with rice
6 servings
150 minutes
Chicken broth with rice is a simple and nourishing dish that warms the soul. Its roots trace back to European cuisine, where broths have long been considered the foundation of many dishes. The delicate aroma of home-cooked chicken, complemented by the sweetness of carrots and the depth of root vegetables' flavor, makes this broth versatile. It is soft and enveloping, perfect for restoring strength after illness or simply for a cozy lunch. Separately cooked rice adds heartiness to the dish, allowing one to enjoy its tender texture. Due to prolonged simmering over heat, the broth becomes rich, clear, and surprisingly flavorful. This classic combination of ingredients makes it popular in home kitchens around the world.
