Ah, so you wanna make that famous mary me chicken soup, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t that hard if ya know the tricks. This soup’s got a way of makin’ folks fall in love, I tell ya. So here’s how ya do it, plain and simple.
First off, ya gotta get your ingredients all set. Now, don’t go fancy on me, just grab what I tell ya and you’ll be good:
- 2 cups of chicken broth
- About a pound of chicken, cut up – don’t gotta be too perfect
- Some uncooked pasta, maybe a cup or so
- A few handfuls of spinach
- Half a cup of Boursin cheese – that creamy stuff
- A half cup of half-and-half cream
- Salt and pepper, just to taste
Now, listen here. First, ya take that chicken broth, pour it right into a big ol’ pot, okay? Then, toss in that cut-up chicken. Now don’t fuss too much, just get it all in there.
Now, ya gonna add in that pasta right on top. Don’t cook it first, no sir! Just toss it in uncooked. Let it cook all together, makes the flavor go right through. Then, ya add in some salt and pepper. Just sprinkle a bit, you can always add more later if ya want.
Alrighty, now here’s the trick. Cover up that pot, set it on a nice high heat for about, oh, four minutes. Now, don’t go walkin’ off; ya gotta keep an eye on it. Soon as those four minutes are up, ya gotta take the lid off, let that pressure go. But be careful, don’t go burnin’ yourself!
Once that’s done, open ‘er up and give it a good stir. Now ya toss in your spinach – don’t worry, it’ll cook down fast. Give it a minute to wilt, ya know?
Now comes the best part, that Boursin cheese. Just stir it right on in till it melts and gets all creamy-like. Then, pour in your half-and-half. Give it all another good stir, make sure it’s mixed nice.
By now, that mary me chicken soup is lookin’ good and creamy, with all the flavors soaked in. Give it a taste – if it needs a bit more salt or pepper, go ahead and add it. But don’t go crazy, ya want the flavors to stay smooth and cozy.
Now serve it up in a nice big bowl, maybe with some bread on the side if ya like. This soup’s got a way of makin’ folks feel warm all over – who knows, maybe even fallin’ in love!
There ya go, mary me chicken soup, just like that! Ain’t nothin’ too fancy, but boy is it tasty.
