Lunch: Wild Rice And Chicken Soup

Recipe by Glenda Baldwin A most delicious soup, and if you add extra chicken, a very filling and satisfying meal. I can't help but add more rice, onions, etc., so I end up with a BIG pot of soup. I have never had anything but raves about this soup!

Ingredients

3 (10.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
2 cups water
1/2 cup wild rice
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups cubed, cooked chicken meat
1 (4 ounce) jar sliced pimento peppers, drained

Instructions

Combine the broth, water, and rice in a large soup pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and cover. Simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, until rice is tender.
Saute onions in butter or margarine in a medium saucepan, over low heat. Stir in flour, salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly and thick. Stir in cream. Cook for 6 minutes, or until mixture thickens slightly, stirring constantly. Stir into broth.
Add cubed chicken and pimientos. Heat through.
