Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 2 hours
Total Time: 2 hours

Yield: Serves 5-6 generous bowls 1x

Instructions

Stuff the onion into the cavity of the chicken and add to a large pot along (breast side down) and season with salt and pepper
Add all veggies to a large pot with the chicken
Fill the pot with cold water to the top (about 90% full)
Cook on high and bring to a boil then lower and let the soup simmer for about 1 hour 30 minutes
Then add in the herbs and cook for another 30 minutes
Next remove the chicken and add to a large bowl
Then remove and discard the onion, herbs and the celery stalks
Take out half the carrots, parsnip and turnips and save to eat
Next take your immersion blender and blend the remaining veggies into the soup (carrot, sweet potatoes, etc.) and blend until smooth
Remove all the meat from the chicken and discard the bones then add meat into chicken soup or save some of it to make a killer chickens salad or eat
Enjoy soup while warm and you can serve with some rice or couscous as well! We use this for our matzo balls.

Notes

**If soup is too thick, add more water to it after blending
