Chicken Soup In A Soup Maker

Chicken soup in a soup maker is as easy to make as it is tasty!

How To Make Chicken Soup In A Soup Maker

This guide will show you how to make chicken soup in both a soup maker, where the chicken must be cooked first, as well as a soup maker that can make the soup with raw chicken.

When I originally made my easy chicken soup recipe, it was in a Morphy Richards soup maker. Chicken must be cooked before adding it to this soup maker.

I have since made it in my new favourite soup maker, the Ninja Soup Maker! You can add raw meat to this soup maker, and it will cook it for you.

I do still add in cooked meat to make soups, as I am quite often using up leftovers, and soup is a great way to do this!

What You Need

1.6L Morphy Richards Soup Maker (or similar model)

• 200g cooked chicken, chopped or shredded. This amount is approximate; you can adjust it depending on what you have available.
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1–2 smallish potatoes (approx. 200g), scrubbed and diced
• 1 chicken stock pot or cube
• Hot water up to the line
• 1 tbsp crème fraiche or cream (optional) stirred into each serving
• Seasoning: I like to add 1tsp of ground black pepper, but you can add according to your taste

Ninja Soup Maker 

• 1 to 2 chicken breasts or boneless chicken thighs cut into chunks. I prefer to use chicken thighs, but both taste great.
• 2 cloves garlic, peeled
• 1 medium onion, quartered
• 1 – 2 smallish potatoes (approx. 200g), scrubbed and diced
• 1 chicken stock pot or cube
• Hot water up to the line
• 1 tbsp crème fraiche/cream (optional) stirred into each serving
• Seasoning – I like to add 1tsp of ground black pepper, but you can add according to your taste

How To Make It

If you are using the Ninja soup maker you can add the quartered onion and whole garlic cloves straight in the jug and press chop.

Optionally sauté the onions and garlic in a little oil or butter before adding all the ingredients to the soup maker jug. Leave out any cream or crème fraiche you might be adding.

For the stock, I tend to add the stock pot or cube straight to the soup maker and then pour boiled hot water straight from the kettle into the soup maker jug, up to the MAX line. 

Set it off on smooth and leave it to cook. The Ninja smooth cycle takes 30 minutes and the Morphy Richards takes 21 minutes.

When it has finished, stir in any cream or crème fraiche if you are adding it, as well as any seasoning according to your own taste.
