Chicken Squash And Pasta Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In 4 1/2- to 5-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook celery, onion and sage in oil 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until onion is softened.
• Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium. Cover; cook 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta and squash are tender.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a stockpot over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, oregano, thyme, and paprika and saute until onion begins to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Add chicken and boil until meat is no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove chicken to cool.
• Stir squash, tomatoes, and quinoa into the pot. Reduce heat and let simmer until squash is tender, about 15 minutes. Shred chicken into bite-size pieces and return to the pot to heat through, 5 to 10 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, add cream and butter; cook until butter is melted. Stir until smooth. Add cheese; cook and stir until cheese is melted. Rinse and drain pasta; add to cheese mixture. Cover and keep warm. , In a large skillet, saute onion and garlic in 3 tablespoons oil until onion is tender. Add squash; cook until tender. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper; remove and keep warm. , Add remaining oil to skillet; cook chicken with herbs and remaining salt until juices run clear. Place pasta on a serving platter; top with chicken and squash.

Steps:

• Take the chicken breast off the roast chicken and put the chicken bones, wings and any other bits in a large microwave dish with the water and thyme. Cover and cook on high for 10 minutes.
• While that is cooking, start on the prep of the veg.
• Finely chop the onion and fry in the oil. Add a little salt to help season the veg as they are cooking.
• Cut the celery into strips lengthways and then chop into small cubes. Add to the onion.
• Peel and cube the carrot to about the same size as the celery. Add to the pot.
• Add crushed garlic.
• By this time the stock should be finished - unless you are particularly fast at veg prep!
• Strain the stock over the vegetables.
• Add the pasta shells or whatever pasta you happen to have.
• Slice the chicken breast and pick off any good bits of chicken from the drained bones. Add to the pot.
• Simmer for as long as it takes to cook the pasta - 13 minutes for my pasta shells.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Add more water if necessary. I needed to add a little more water after about 10 minutes.
• Add the zucchini/courgette in the last 5 minutes of cooking. Slice the zucchini lengthways. Cut into triangular pieces. I find cutting the zucchini this way helps keep them in one piece in a soup where they may get overcooked when the soup is reheated.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Pour the stock into a pan and bring to a simmer. Add the squash and chicken, cover and bubble gently for 15 mins, or until the chicken and squash are cooked. If the chicken cooks first, remove from the pan, set aside and keep boiling the squash until tender. Scoop the squash out with a slotted spoon, leaving just the stock in the pan.
• Bring the stock back to the boil and add the pasta; the liquid should just cover the pasta. Cook, stirring regularly, until the pasta is just tender and most of the stock has been absorbed (top up with water if necessary). Shred the chicken.
• Return the squash to the pan and add the cream cheese, pecans, parsley and parmesan. Simmer for another min or two, then add the chicken. Season and serve with extra parmesan, if you like.
