My family enjoys food with flair like this unique Asian soup. Whenever I serve it, it's such a hit that no one has much room for the main course. The children get a real kick out of watching the rice sizzle when it gets added to the soup.—Mary Woodke, Gardiner, New York
Ingredients
- 1 cup uncooked long grain rice
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups cubed cooked chicken
- 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 can (8 ounces) bamboo shoots, drained
- 1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained
- 4 chicken bouillon cubes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas
- 1/4 cup canola oil
Directions
- Cook rice according to package directions. Spread on a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake at 325° for 2 hours or until dried and browned, stirring occasionally; set aside.
- In a large soup kettle or Dutch oven, combine the broth, chicken, mushrooms, onions, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, bouillon and garlic powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour.
