Chicken Wild Rice Soup From The Pastor's Wife
My old pastor's wife used to make this. she was an incredible cook! I will use any recipe of hers--no questions asked! if i don't have dry sherry, i will use orange juice. sometimes i will add more wild rice and just throw in a little more water as the rice cooks.
Steps
Combine broth and water.
Add wild rice and onion.
Simmer , covered , 35-40 minutes until rice is tender.
In a separate saucepan , melt butter on low heat and stir in flour , salt , chicken seasoning and pepper.
Stir constantly , to prevent burning , until smooth and bubbly.
Add half anf half and cook until thickens-about 2 minutes.
Slowly add half and half mixture to the rice , stirring constantly.
Add remaining ingredients , stirring until thoroughly heated.
Add water at the end if you find this to be too thick.
