Mashed chicken soup with potatoes

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the ingredients for the soup. If the soup-puree will be prepared for a large number of people, then you can take a whole chicken. If a chicken breast is taken for a small family, it is more useful.

2. Step 2:

   

   Pour water into a saucepan and put the washed chicken fillet, add a pinch of salt, put a bay leaf and a couple of peas of black pepper. We put it on fire. When the broth boils, remove the foam formed on the surface, reduce the heat to medium and cook the chicken for about 20 minutes.

3. Step 3:

   

   Meanwhile, the potatoes are washed, cleaned and cut into large cubes.

4. Step 4:

   

   Carrots are also washed, cleaned and cut into large cubes. Onions are cleaned from the husk and cut with a knife.

6. Step 5:

   

   Remove the chicken fillet from the broth, cut it into pieces. Remove the bay leaf and pepper from the broth. Strain the broth through a sieve. Put the vegetables in chicken broth and cook until the carrots are soft.

7. Step 6:

   

   Then we send chicken meat to the vegetables and cook them together for about 5 more minutes.

8. Step 7:

   

   Then drain the broth, leaving it a little at the bottom of the pan with meat and vegetables, punch everything with a blender until a homogeneous puree is obtained, if necessary, adding chicken broth to achieve the desired soup density. Add spices to taste, salt and ground black pepper. Mix it up.

9. Step 8:

   

   Put a pot of mashed soup on the fire, bring to a boil, turn off the fire. Chicken and potato puree soup is ready. We serve it hot to the table with fresh herbs, crackers and sour cream. Bon appetit!
