Chicken Leftover Soup is one of my favourite soup recipes. Using leftover chicken pieces including the carcass adds so much flavour that you don’t get from the flesh itself. An added bonus is the alluring aroma of the chicken simmering away. Serve as a soup or as a main dish. This is a soup you definitely need bread for dunking as you don’t want to leave any.
Chicken Leftover Soup
A superb recipe to use every part of the chicken.
This is always popular and any soup leftover can be strained and used as chicken stock.
Nothing goes to waste.
