Recipe - Carls Sick Soup

4 cup Water
4 cup Chicken Broth
3 tablespoon Minced Green Onion
One half teaspoon Coarse Ground Black Pepper
1 Palmful Fresh Parsely
1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken
Breast cut in tiny
Pieces
6 lg Carrots cut or sliced up
1 cn Unsalted Green Beans,
Undrained or
1 pound Fresh Green Beans
2 cup Rice Or
1 pound Angel Hair Pasta

Start this recipe a day in advance by boiling the chicken pieces in the 4
cups of water with the green onion, black pepper, and parsely. Put it the
refrigerator overnight and the next day scoop the fat off the top.

The next day, bring 4 cups of water to a boil and add the carrots. Boil for
10 minutes or so. Dump in the stock and chicken from the day before and
the green beans and bring back to a boil. The next part of the cooking
takes 20 minutes:

For rice Add the rice and cook according to rice directions, about 20
minutes for white rice (I've never used brown rice in this).

For dry angel hair dump it in at such a time as the 20 minutes is up at
the same time the angel hair's done to your liking.

For fresh angel hair from the refrigerated section at the grocery put it
in 34 minutes before the 20 minutes is up. Don't overcook the angel hair!!

I try to get the pasta to be al dente, although sometimes the wine makes me
forget!! You may want to experiment with spices because without salt, this
recipe can be somewhat bland.

One normal soup ladel full of this soup is somewhere around 300 calories. I
forget the actual calorie count of the individual ingredients, but I
averaged them out from the counts given in a book I have. I do only one
ladel. This stuff freezes well and makes great lunches.

Oh, yes, the wine for this? I like Bonny Doon '93 or '94 Clos du Gilroy.
It has a peppery flavor that I think goes well with this light fare. My
wife, a white wine fan, likes Chalk Hill Sauvignon Blanc (I forget the year
model) because it too has a peppery flavor.
