How to Make Another Chicken Soup Recipe

1. Melt margarine in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Remove chicken from the pot and set aside.
3. Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle flour over the pot and whisk constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. It will be slightly lumpy at first.
4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of water at a time, ensuring no lumps remain. Continue whisking until smooth.
5. Add the remaining water (or broth), carrots, celery, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and turmeric. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
6. Return the chicken to the pot. Cover and simmer for approximately 30 minutes, or until chicken is tender.
7. Remove chicken from the pot. Shred the meat and discard the bones. Return the shredded chicken to the soup.
8. Stir in the rice and continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through.
9. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
10. Serve hot with crusty bread. For children, reduce or omit turmeric and pepper.
