Summer colds just suck. Actually, I think it may be worst than having a winter's cold. Nothing worse then a snotting and coughing and it's about 100C outside. Eeek! Since Mommies do not get a day off from Mommyhood, you better figure out something to help ease that cold. Now this is not a CURE...come on if they had one for the cold would I be writing this. They'll do that later and cause everyone to turn to zombies ;-) Go ahead and mark my words, honey.
So you'll need a casserole dish. You really don't need a big one, cause this is just to make a little soup. Larger portions and all you do is get a bigger pan, and more stuff.
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast. Frozen
4c. of water
3 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
2 whole fresh ripe sprigs of rosemary. Remove the leaves/sprigs
3 whole peeled garlic cloves sliced thin
Touch of salt
Dash on your favorite seasonings. I load it up with garlic powder, onion powder. etc
1 whole small white onion sliced into rings
Lemon Juice
Start by putting your chicken (frozen) in the water and pour over the olive oil.
You can put rings, chunks, it really doesn't matter cause when you eat it, it's gonna be soft.
Take a knife and carefully get the sprigs off the rosemary stems. Put them all in uncut. You can keep the stems to make incense out of later on.
Add a couple of tbsps of lemon juice, all your favorite seasonings and cook on 350 degrees for 2 hours. Check it and give it some more time if needed.
Silly me forgot to take a pic of the final product, cause of course I dug into it. ;-) Make sure the chicken is DONE, all the ingredients should be soft, and feel free to drink the broth. That is where all the good stuff you need will be. I shredded my chicken and made a soup of out it. Goes great with garlic bread.
Feel a cold and starve a fever.
