How To Make rainy season chicken soup

  • 1
    Using a small pan, bring a cup of water to boiling and drop in the mushrooms; cook uncovered over medium-high heat for 10 minutes, then drain the mushrooms, pat them dry, and slice thinly. Set aside.
  • 2
    In a large saute pan, melt the butter over low heat; put in the leeks, carrots, onions, celery and chicken and stir gently.
  • 3
    Cover and cook over low heat for 5 minutes; take cover off, stir the vegetables and turn the chicken and check for doneness. (The chicken should be 1/2 done.)
  • 4
    Cover and cook another 5 minutes or until chicken is just done; remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to cool.
  • 5
    Sprinkle the flour over the melted butter, vegetables and juices.
  • 6
    Stir to cook over low heat for 2 minutes; slowly add the white wine and 2 cups of broth.
  • 7
    Stir and cook until bubbly and thickened; add the sour cream very slowly, and allow to cook gently while you slice the chicken into thin bite-sized pieces.
  • 8
    In a large frying pan, bring the remaining 2 cups of broth to boiling and add noodles.
  • 9
    Cook 4 minutes or until almost done; do not drain.
  • 10
    Slowly add the noodle mixture to the hot vegetables and sour cream mixture.

    Add the chicken and the mushroom and bring back to boiling.
