caldo de pollo

Caldo de Pollo, or Mexican chicken soup, is a healthy soup made from chicken thighs and vegetables like carrots, zucchini, corn, cabbage and potatoes.

Caldo de Pollo

water

chicken thighs, (skin removed)

garlic, (peeled)

bay leaves

coarse kosher salt, (plus more to taste)

potatoes,

frozen mini ears of corn

zucchini,

carrots,

green cabbage,

lime juice ((the juice of 2 limes))

cilantro

mix-ins and toppings: white rice

In a large Dutch oven or soup pot, bone-in chicken thighs, garlic, bay leaves, and salt. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to a low simmer and continue cooking for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until the meat is tender.

Skim off and discard any foam floating at the top of the pot as well as the bay leaves and garlic cloves. Transfer the cooked chicken to a medium bowl and set aside to cool slightly.

Add the potatoes, corn, zucchini, carrots and cabbage.

Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat to a low simmer and continue cooking for 15 minutes until all the vegetables are tender and cooked through.

While the vegetables are cooking, remove the bones from the chicken and discard. Shred or cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

When the vegetables are fully cooked, add the shredded chicken, chopped cilantro and lime juice. Stir everything together and taste. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.

Serve soup in large bowls, making sure that each bowl gets a little bit of everything. Top each bowl desired toppings and mix-ins like jalapenos, white rice, Mexican rice and a few dashes of Tobasco hot sauce. This really brings out the flavor of the broth!

This Caldo de Pollo recipe, or Mexican chicken soup, is a deliciously warming soup that&#x27;s bursting with Mexican flavors! It&#x27;s a great appetizer or main dish!

Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs

Chicken Broth

Canned Tomatoes (undrained)

Celery (chopped)

Carrots (chopped)

Jasmine Rice (or other small grain rice)

onions, chopped

Cilantro (with stems)

Garlic

Cumin

salt

pepper

Lime

Place all ingredients into the inner liner of your Instant Pot.

Close the pot and set it to high pressure for 10 minutes.

When time is up, let the pot rest for 10 minutes. Then release all remaining pressure.

Using silicone tongs, remove the chicken from the pressure cooker and shred it.

Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup. If desired, remove the sprigs of cilantro since you were using them mainly for seasoning.

Squeeze in the lime or lemon juice.

Serve the soup as is, or with slices of avocado stirred in at the last minute.  I like to serve with additional lime wedges, warmed corn toritllas, or crushed tortilla chips.

Made this tonight when I was feeling under the weather. Came together fast and used up a bunch of the veggies that were languishing in the back of the fridge! The only change I made to the recipe was I did the noodles instead of rice (cooked separate), and I soaked and pureed a few dried ancho chiles and added them in, since I was craving that flavor. Soooooo good!!

Made today!  Used packaged broth instead of water, such great flavor!  For my taste some spice heat would push it over the top, but for the other two in the house it was perfect!  Definitely on the keeper recipe pile.  Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for posting this Caldo de Pollo.. I've always made  Caldo de Res &amp; Menudo..but never Caldo de Pollo..I will definitely make this..it looks delicious &amp; easy to make..I love your recipes..I must admit I'm not a big fan of real spicy foods, but always seem to add just a little bit of spice to them..
Thanks again, Gloria Jones Rodriguez

I made this tonight and it was fantastic. The tomato sauce I used was “spicy” which I initially didn’t realize but turned out to be delicious. My family loved it.

So yummy! Craving this with your salsa recipe on top. Could try it with chicken breast and shred for kids to eat too! 

As a native Californian, Caldo de Pollo has always been one of my favorite soups. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this delicious recipe so I can make it at home! It's so simple, so speedy, and perfectly soul soothing. Kudos!

My family loves this caldo de pollo recipe.

I'm feeling under the weather and opted for this caldito de pollo. I can't say that the caldo actually worked since its to soon to tell but it did feed the soul. So easy to make and In about 45 minutes you have this yummy bowl. The flavor was delicious and I really can't wait to make this again soon.

This is my go-to recipe for caldo! I have customized it to my liking and it still tastes wonderful - reminds me of my mom's caldo.

I’ve made this soup many times and it’s so full of flavor and comfort! I recently made a batch for a meal train for a friend while they recovered from surgery and it was a major hit. They appreciated how hearty the meal was and how easy it is to store and reheat as they recover.

The taste brought me back to my grandmother's small kitchen and when we would visit her from out of state she would make this delicious caldo.  She was on a very fixed income but most of these ingredients were always around.  Thank you for the recipe and I'm sure she is smiling that I was confident enough to make it and now our family will be smiling.  I added cabbage and some corn on the cob like she used to.  It's so versatile! Thank you

I have made this Soup over and over and everyone loves it. It's perfect on a cold day in Arizona.

Hello Mrs Marquez. My name is Glen Thank You  for putting that recipe out there my stomach and I appreciate it. I did alter it a little bit I had almost everything except for tomatoes or tomato sauce but I did have some New Mexico dried chilies and Guajillo chiles, so after eating them up and running them through the blender and frying it I added the sauce to the broth, and thank you for the comment that you made about the cilantro I still get a slight chuckle when I think about that  hope you and your family have a very blessed memorable Thanksgiving

Caldo de Pollo (Homemade Chicken Soup)

Arrocito de aprovechamiento con cosas que me sobraban de otras comidas.

Arroz con calabaza y setas shiitake

y medio cucharones soperos de arroz

Caldo de pollo

calabaza fresca

g setas shiitake

Caldo de cocido o de pollo (1L aprox.)

Sal y pimienta

Cebolla tierna

diente ajo

Pimiento rojo

Pimiento verde italiano

chorrito vino blanco

Azafrán

cucharada pimentón dulce

150 ml tomate triturado

Pelota

Cebollino

Cortar en brunoise la cebolla y los pimientos. El ajo en láminas. Empezar a sofreír ajo, cebolla después y pimientos por último. A duego bajo. Cuando esté un poco pochado, añadir chorrito de vino y dejar que evapore el alcohol.

Empezar a calentar el caldo en un cazo a fuego bajo, que usaremos después. Si tenéis pelota mejor que mejor.

Mientras se pocha la cebolla y el pimiento, cortar en dados la calabaza y en tiras las setas.

Añadir el tomate al pochado, un poquito de azafrán, pimentón dulce y dejar pochar hasta que esté todo blando. Reservar en un plato el sofrito.

Nacarar el arroz 1 minuto en la misma cazuela donde hemos hecho el sofrito. Añadir el sofrito e integrar todo.

Añadir la calabaza y acto seguido el caldo que cubra todo. Después las setas. Cuando hierva el caldo empieza la cuenta atrás: 12 minutos.

A los 5 minutos añadir la pelota, si tenéis. Ir removiendo cada poco tiempo y añadiendo caldo para que no se enganche el arroz.

Una vez pasados los 12 minutos, tapar y dejar reposar 2 minutos. Añadir cebollino por encima si tenéis. Servir y disfrutar!
