Creamy Chicken Soup

A lovely creamy soup best enjoyed on a winters day served with crispy garlic bread. A soup that can be made in record time :)

Ingredients:

3 chicken fillets cut into cubes

1/2 cup raw macaroni

1 onion (chopped)

215g can sweetcorn creamstyle or kernals

1 packet creamychicken powered soup (I use knorr but any other brand will do)

1 tsp ginger and garlic paste

1 tsp dried crushed chillies

A good grinding of black pepper

Salt to taste

500ml water

500ml milk

Method:

1. Combine the water, milk and packet soup in a jug. Stir well until soup is dissolved.

2. Braise the onion in some oil till brown.

3. Add the garlic and ginger paste and the dried crushed chillies and stir

4. Add the chicken and braise until cooked through.

5. Add the liquid soup mix, the sweet corn, salt, freshly ground black pepper and the macaroni.

6. Turn down to a low heat and let it cook through till the macaroni is soft.

7. Serve with crispy garlic toast (bread rubbed with butter and garlic and popped into the oven till brown a crispy on the outside but soft on the inside.)

P.S. The creamstyle sweetcorn makes the soup nice and thick but if you want a thinner soup then add kernals instead.
