Ingredients
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 1 pound chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
- 4 stalks celery, stalks thinly sliced and leaves finely chopped, divided
- 3/4 cup jasmine rice, unrinsed
- salt, to taste
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest, finely chopped
- 1 small clove garlic, grated
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- lemon juice, to taste, freshly squeezed
Directions
Step 1 -In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the chicken broth, the chicken thighs, the sliced celery stalks, the rice, and the salt and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently.
Step 2 -Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the soup mixture until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F and the rice starts to break down, about 20-30 minutes.
Step 3 -In a small bowl, add the parsley leaves, the lemon zest, about 1/2 cup of the chopped celery leaves, the garlic, and the salt and stir to combine. Set it aside.
Step 4 -Transfer the chicken thighs to a large plate and use two forks to shred them into bite-sized pieces.
Step 5 -Add the shredded chicken to the soup and stir to combine.
Step 6 -Transfer the soup from the heat. Add the butter to the soup and stir to combine.
Step 7 -Taste the soup and season with the salt, as needed. Stir to combine.
Step 8 -Add the lemon juice, a little at a time, to the soup until it is citrusy, but still has a strong chicken broth flavor. Stir to combine.
Step 9 -Serve the soup sprinkled with the reserved herb mixture.
