Low Fat Chicken Soup Recipe for Diverticulitis

Chicken Soup Recipe

Mainly, if I use chicken stock in my soup recipes, I prefer to make it myself. I always shred the chicken I use while making the broth and add it to the soup at the end of the recipe. However, when it comes to Diverticulitis, it is essential not to add or strain the chicken broth so that no chicken pieces go into the soup. See Also: Bone Broth Recipe

Surprisingly, the soup still turned out to be delicious despite the absence of chicken. So, no need to worry. You can still enjoy a great soup. Here is the recipe...

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 medium potato
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 1 small zucchini
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 4 chicken legs
  • 40 oz. water
  • 1 1/2 lemons
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Put water in a large pot, add chicken legs, and boil for 10 minutes. Chop the carrots, zucchini, and potatoes into cubes and add them to the chicken broth. Add salt, mix, and cook for 20 more minutes.
  2. Put 5 tbsp of plain Greek yogurt in a medium bowl. Add the yolk of 1 egg and the juice of half a lemon and mix well. Add 2 spoons of chicken stock to this bowl and mix.
  3. Take the chicken out of the pot. Mix the dressing by adding it little by little to the pot. Turn the stove to medium heat and cook for another 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, add pepper and juice of 1 lemon and mix once more. Boil for a very short time, and it's ready.

Notes

Tip: When the dressing temperature approaches the soup's heat, put a little bit of the sauce into the soup. Otherwise, the yogurt will look flaky in the soup.

Recommendation: If you don't like the chicken stock soup sour, use 1/2 lemon juice instead of the 1 lemon you added in the last step.

Warning: Never add the chicken pieces to the soup. This is not good for your diet.
