Description

This vibrant soup combines the fresh tang of lemon, the cozy heat of ginger, and the earthy glow of turmeric for a nourishing, golden bowl of comfort. Shredded chicken and fluffy rice make it hearty enough for dinner, while the aromatic spices bring soothing, feel-good vibes. Perfect for chilly evenings, lazy Sundays, or anytime you need a warm reset.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups chicken stock or broth
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped


Instructions

  1. Sauté the aromatics. Warm the olive oil in a large pot set over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened and lightly golden, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the flavor boosters. Stir in the garlic, grated ginger, turmeric, and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Simmer the base. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. Build the body. Stir in the shredded chicken and cooked rice. Let the mixture bubble on low heat for 8–10 minutes so the flavors meld together.
  5. Brighten it up. Just before serving, add the lemon juice along with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Finish & serve. Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Notes

  • Notes & Tips
    • Time-saving hack: Grab a rotisserie chicken and pre-cooked rice for a shortcut version.
    • Veggie boost: Toss in diced carrots, celery, spinach, or bell peppers for added nutrients.
    • Spice it up: Crank up the red pepper flakes or add a pinch of cayenne for extra heat.
    • Herb swap: Try cilantro, dill, or basil in place of parsley for a fun twist.
    • Storage: Keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze in airtight containers. Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of broth if needed.
