Lemon Chicken Soup with Spinach and Artichoke

There is nothing more comforting than a bowl of homemade chicken soup. It’s the food equivalent of a warm hug.

I often add lemon to my chicken soup recipes. This chicken soup recipe is adding even more flavor with spinach and artichokes.

Now is the perfect time to make homemade chicken soup to enjoy with your loved ones.

How To Make Chicken Soup with Spinach and Artichokes

  1. In large dutch oven pot, heat oil over medium/high heat. Add onions, carrots and celery. Sauté for 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté 1 more minute.
  2. Add chicken broth to pot and bring to a gentle boil. Add chicken thighs and bay leaf. Gently boil until chicken is cooked through (chicken pieces will take 5-7 minutes, whole thighs take 10-15 minutes)
  3. Add spinach, artichokes and lemon juice. Cook 5 more minutes.
  4. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve with cooked rice or noodles.

Can You Put Raw Chicken In Soup To Cook

Yes, you are basically poaching the chicken while flavoring the meat and the broth.

You can cut the chicken into bite sized pieces, cook them and serve straight from the pot.

Or, the method I prefer, cook the chicken thighs whole. Once cooked through remove from pot and chop or shred the meat. Return to the pot the last 2 minutes of cooking to reheat. I prefer this method because I like shredded chicken in my chicken soup.
