Creamy beer and dill chicken soup
2 chicken thighs, cut into bite sized cubes
One pear or apple, cored and diced
One yellow onion, diced
One 15 oz can diced potato
Butter for frying
1 bottle of beer
1 cup water
A shot of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
1-2 tsp kosher salt to taste
2 tsp pepper
1 tsp dried dill weed
1 tsp garlic powder
½ cup rolled oats
½ cup milk
½ cup shredded cheddar or American cheese
Sweat the onion and the apple or pear in the butter on medium heat for a few minutes. Add the chicken and brown on all sides. Add the salt, pepper, dill, and garlic powder and mix until all ingredients are coated.
Add the beer, water, and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium low and low boil covered with the lid ajar or vented for 30-40 minutes to boil off most of the alcohol, stirring occasionally.
Add in the oats and can of potato and simmer for another 10 minutes to cook the oats and heat up the potato. Skim the scum off top. Turn off the heat and mix in the milk and melt in the cheese. Top with a little more shredded cheese and crackers if you like.
I came up with this after I decided to experiment with cooking with beer. I tried a couple of different versions and this is the best one I think. I liked it so much I thought I’d share it. The apples add a subtle sweetness I really like and apples and pears are good in soup in general.
You can use whatever cut of chicken you have available but I find that the fattiness of the thigh is really good in something this dense.
OP where tf do you get a CAN of potato instead of potato-potato
The grocery store, usually.
Yeah okay no I get that but i am wondering who came up with the idea of canning potatoes and why anyone would get a can over a potato
I hate peeling potatoes. If peeling potatoes is one of your personal life’s joys I won’t judge you for it but I don’t like doing it
Who peels potatoes??
With all due respect I’m starting to believe that you’re a troll of some sort or perhaps some other flavor of internet trickster. Either that or you are of of the 10,000 people today being introduced to the concept of peeled potatoes.
