Caldo (chicken soup)

2 Chicken breast halves
2 large carrots, peeled and chopped
1 cup onion chopped
1 cup cilantro (leaves only, no stems) loose, not packed
3 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and chopped
2-3 cups cabbage, chopped (it shrinks!)
2 cubes chicken bouillon
1tsp salt
water to cover, add more as necessary

one serving is about 12 oz
Boil chicken, garlic, cilantro, bouillon cubes and half of the following: celery, onion, carrots. When chicken is done remove and cut into bite size pieces. Run the broth through a strainer removing the mushy veggies.
peel and chop potatoes, remaining carrots, onion, and cabbage. place veggies and chicken in 'clean' broth and boil (slowly) till potatoes are soft.
** I use the sopa de pollo cube. Knorr brand.
great recipe if you haven't had time to defrost anything because you can just throw the frozen chicken breast in there. don't forget to skim off the fat

Number of Servings: 10
