  4.5 – 12 reviews  • Chicken and Rice Soup Recipes

Cranberries, toasted nuts, red onion, and feta cheese add flavor to the savory raspberry dijon vinaigrette. The perfect crowd-pleaser! can also use brie in instead of feta.

Tasted awesome. Put in a little extra rice and veggies. Used frozen Asian veggies which added green beans, broccoli, and water chestnuts to the dish. I may actually bump up the amount of rice the next time. Yummy
Brad Orr
I did not include the red pepper flakes and tomatoes. Excellent and very tasting soup. Awesome aroma during cook time.
Robert Humphrey
I’ve just made this. It’s very easy, uses everyday ingredients (no run to the grocery store!), and tastes great.
Kathleen Blackburn
Used turkey instead of chicken. I added more rice but failed to add more liquid ended up with a turkey, rice and vegetable goulash! Wonderful flavor and filling
Mr. Russell Pierce
Excellent recipe. Simple and easy. Many variables are possible; you can make it your own.
Erik Trujillo
Didn’t stray from the recipe and was So delicious. Easy, Comforting, and best of all gluten free! My husband ate almost all of it and he’s not gluten intolerant. Thank you for a great tasting homemade soup.

I added thinly sliced red-skin potatoes in with the frozen veggies (corn and french cut green beans) for the last hour. Made it a bit heartier and fed a group of 25 with great reviews.

I will definitely make this again. I used high quality broth and chicken thighs. I think that helps. Simple and yummy!
Dale Lawson
Red pepper flakes ruined the soup.
Tiffany Jensen
Delicious! Really nice flavor and it’s tick and hearty. Next time I will add some extra rice.

I needed a veggie soup fast for my baby girl’s supper. Therefore, I just chopped everything super small, including the chicken, and brought the stock with 2 cups of water to a boil. I reduced to a simmer and continued cooking until the vegetables were soft. I used a can of Italian seasoned tomatoes for extra flavour. This soup is delicious! It had tons of flavour and my girl ate two bowls full. I puréed it after cooking for her.

I left out the tomatoes due to personal preference so because of that I added a bit more chicken broth and rice. I felt the recipe needed more herbs but maybe that was my own fault for not using the seasoned tomatoes. I ended up adding some Italian seasoning but that was all. I really liked the hot pepper flakes and will double them next time. This was a good soup and one I will make again. It was super simple and is one that is easily adjusted to fit your tastes.
