Ingredients
- Package Frontier Soups Golden Peanut Soup MIx
- 6 cups Broth/stock - chicken or vegetable
- 1 cup Peanut Butter, creamy
- 2 cup Broccoli - fresh or frozen
- 2 chicken breasts - boneless, skinless
- 2 cup jasmine rice
- 1/4 cup peanuts - dry roasted, chopped
- 2 sprigs cilantro - fresh
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a four-quart pot, bring broth to a boil.
- Reduce heat and stir in soup mix. Return to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.
- Stir in peanut butter until thoroughly blended.
- For the chicken, you can use rotisserie chicken or cook it yourself. I just seasoned two chicken breasts with salt and pepper and then put them in my Instant Pot for 10 minutes with a cup of water. After the natural release process is over, I used two forks to shred the chicken into bite-size pieces. I then covered them with foil while I finished the peanut sauce.
- Before adding the chicken, I used an immersion blender to purée about half of the soup in the pot for a smooth sauce/soup.Just be careful to use a deep pot when you use a blender like this, as it will splatter the hot liquid. Then add the shredded chicken. Combine with soup to warm for 10 minutes, covering the pot while the flavors infuse.
- While this was happening, I steamed some broccoli (2 cups raw) for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave. If you use frozen, let it defrost first to get rid of any excess water. Chop up the broccoli into bite-size pieces and add to soup pot to warm.
- Rama Chicken uses rice as a base for the recipe. So, I used my Instant Pot once again to make jasmine rice. It’s seriously so easy—just a 1:1 ratio of one cup water to one cup rice.Then high pressure for 4 minutes. I did a quick release and spooned the rice in each of the individual serving bowls.
- Chop ¼ cup of dry roasted peanuts and the leaves from a couple sprigs of cilantro for the topping.
- Ladle the mixture of chicken, broccoli and peanut sauce over the rice. Sprinkle some of the chopped peanuts and cilantro to finish the dish.
