SLOW COOKER CREAMY CHICKEN SOUP WITH LEMON, RICE AND DILL

Steps:

• Combine the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and bay leaf in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Pull the skin off half of the thighs and discard it (or save to render the fat at another time). Add the chicken to the slow cooker and top with broth. Season generously with pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt if you are using low-sodium broth or 1 teaspoon salt if using homemade unsalted stock. (Do not add salt now if you are using fully salted broth.) Cover and cook on low for at least 4 hours and up to 6 hours. If it's more convenient, you can let the slow cooker switch to warm after 6 hours. The soup will hold on warm for about another 2 hours before the chicken starts to dry out.
• With a spoon or ladle, skim and discard any obvious foam and fat from the top of the soup. With tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and vegetables to a bowl and strain the broth. Discard the vegetables (or if they still have flavor, set them aside for a snack) and let the chicken cool while you finish the soup. Return the broth to the slow cooker, and switch the heat to high. Stir in the rice, cover and let the soup heat up until it is at least steaming hot, or bubbling a bit around the edges, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk the lemon juice, egg yolks and sour cream in a medium bowl until creamy and combined. Dip a liquid measuring cup into the hot broth. While whisking constantly, very slowly drizzle about 2 cups of hot broth into the lemon juice mixture until fully combined and smooth. Pour this mixture into the slow cooker with the rest of the soup and whisk for another minute or so, until the soup starts to thicken enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon. Coarsely shred the chicken meat and add it into the soup, discarding the bones and skin. Stir in the dill and taste the soup. Add salt if necessary, and more lemon juice and black pepper if you like. If the soup isn't hot enough, cover and let heat on high for another 10 minutes.

SLOW COOKER LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Turn a slow cooker to High. Combine chicken broth, lemon juice, garlic, garlic powder, and cayenne in the bottom of the cooker until mixture heats through, about 5 minutes.
• In the meantime, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of chicken thighs with salt and pepper and place in the hot skillet. Cook, turning occasionally, until crisp on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes total. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
• Turn slow cooker to Low and add rice, carrots, and chicken. Cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Add the pine nuts and cook, stirring constantly until they turn golden (just a minute or so).
• When the 10 minutes of steaming are up, add the onion and pine nut mixture to the rice, along with the lemon juice, dill, and mint (if using). Stir with a plastic rice paddle or a wooden spoon to combine.

PRESSURE COOKER CHICKEN SOUP WITH LEMON AND RICE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 6- to 8-quart pressure cooker on the sauté setting. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring often, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant and softened, about 1 minute. Add the chicken thighs, season with salt, then add the chicken broth and bay leaf. Season very generously with pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt if you are using low-sodium broth or 1 teaspoon salt if using homemade unsalted stock. (Do not add more salt now if you are using fully salted broth.) Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.
• Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. (If hot liquid spurts out with the steam, close the knob and let it release naturally for 5 more minutes.) With a ladle, skim and discard excess fat from the top of the soup, if you wish. Using two forks, coarsely shred the chicken. (Don't worry about getting every piece because the chicken will fall apart more when you whisk to thicken.) Add the rice and turn on the sauté setting. Whisk the egg yolks, sour cream and lemon juice in a medium bowl until creamy and combined.
• Dip a large measuring cup into the hot broth. While whisking constantly, very slowly drizzle about 2 cups broth into the lemon juice mixture until fully combined and smooth. Pour this mixture into the pressure cooker and let the soup simmer, whisking, until slightly thickened and the rice is warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the dill and season to taste with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Serve in bowls with scallions sprinkled on top, if using.

LEMON CHICKEN RICE SOUP IN PRESSURE COOKER

Steps:

• Heat oil in pressure cooker pan. Add garlic and let it perfume oil for 30 seconds. Don't let it burn. Then add, chopped leek (or yellow onion), celery, and thyme (if using). Saute for 3 minutes or until onions are soft.
• Add chicken, rinsed rice, (thaw chicken before adding if using frozen chicken), 1/2 tsp salt, and water. Tight close the lid of pressure cooker and turn heat on high. After first whistle, reduce heat to medium and let cook in pressure for 6-8 minutes (about 4-5 whistles on low-medium heat). Once done, switch off the heat and leave cooker for 5-10 minutes to release pressure. I often hold the whistle of pressure cooked with a long-handle spatula to release steam (keeping my face and arm away to avoid chicken steam :)) But this process will vary depending upon type of pressure cooker you using. For any model, leaving cooker for few minutes after cooking auto release the pressure slowly.
• Once pressure has released, open the lid. Remove and discard thyme sprigs and greens of leek (if you prefer). Remove cooked chicken with tongs and transfer to cutting board. Return cooker on heat (without lid), add carrot noodles, green peas to the cooking soup. On high heat cook for 2 minutes, or until carrots are crisp tender. Meantime, chop or shred chicken pieces and set aside.
• Add chopped cooked chicken (discard bones if any), fresh chopped parsley, lemon juice, black pepper, then taste and adjust for salt, lemon, and black pepper. Ladle into cups and serve hot. enjoy!
