Cambodian Chicken & Rice Soup
.
Southeast Asian flavors are much-loved in our house. This soup seemed like a good fit.
Incredibly simple, especially with the shortcut of rotisserie chicken & already-cooked rice.
(we omitted the cilantro, being in the 'it tastes like dish soap' camp)
A good, deep chicken flavor with a very faint sweetness & warmth, with a strong basil note.
4 Thoughts for food:
Ha! I used to think cilantro tastes like dish soap too! But my palate has evolved or something because I don't mind it now.
The soup looks great! I like that they suggest you use a prepared chicken instead of taking the time to cook it in the soup, letting it cool, etc.
I am in the opposite cilantro camp but I still love you and will wave from across the lake! ;-) The soup looks delicious and so full of flavor. Thanks for sending it to Souper Sundays--it is always a pleasure when you stop by and join in!
Rachel;
It's definitely an acquired taste. Reactions tend to be pretty strong, one way or the other. Fortunately, we can usually sub basil or parsley.
Oh, that's one of the reasons I was keen to try it. Saved me the trouble of roasting a chicken!
I wave back at you, Deb!!
