Questions about Chicken rice soup
How do you make chicken rice soup from scratch?
Soften diced onion, carrot and celery in a little oil, add stock and rice, and simmer until the rice is nearly tender. Stir in cooked shredded chicken and simmer for a few more minutes, until piping hot; add a splash of stock if the rice has thickened the soup too much.
Can you use uncooked rice in chicken rice soup?
Yes. Add rinsed rice to simmering stock and cook until tender, usually about 15–20 minutes for white rice; brown rice can take 30–40 minutes. If using raw chicken too, simmer it until cooked through, then shred it before serving.
How do you stop the rice going mushy in chicken rice soup?
Cook the rice separately and stir it into each bowl, especially if you plan to keep leftovers. Rice continues absorbing broth as the soup stands, so this also stops the pot becoming thick and stodgy.
How long does chicken rice soup keep in the fridge?
Cool it promptly, refrigerate in a covered container and eat within two days. Reheat only the portion you need until steaming hot throughout; if the rice has soaked up the broth, loosen it with a little water or stock.
Can you freeze chicken rice soup?
You can, but the rice may soften and break up after thawing. For a better texture, freeze the chicken and broth without rice, then add freshly cooked rice when you reheat the soup.
What can you serve with chicken rice soup?
Crusty bread or toast makes a simple accompaniment, while parsley, lemon juice or a little black pepper brighten the broth. It also works well with a small green salad.
What can you use instead of rice in chicken soup?
Small pasta shapes, pearl barley or diced potatoes all work; add each according to its cooking time so it turns tender without falling apart. For a quicker alternative, stir in cooked noodles just before serving.

Chicken rice soup gets its starch from rice, while chicken noodle soup uses pasta. Per 100 g, chicken rice soup has 5.1 g protein, compared with 3.09 g in chunky chicken noodle soup.
How much protein is in a bowl of chicken rice soup?
