TIPS
Here are some helpful tips for Turmeric Chicken Bone Broth Soup:
- Use Fresh Chicken: Leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken can be easily diced and added to reduce prep time.
- Enhance Turmeric: Always include black pepper to increase turmeric absorption and effectiveness.
- Don’t Overcook Spinach: Add spinach at the end to maintain its colour, nutrients, and tender texture.
- Boost Healing: A splash of lemon juice or fresh ginger can enhance the soup’s cleansing properties.
- Strain The Broth: If using homemade broth, strain before simmering to remove any sediment or bones.
VARIATIONS
- Vegetarian Version: Use vegetable broth and replace chicken with cubed tofu or cooked lentils.
- Spiced Upgrade: Add cumin, garlic, or grated ginger for more complexity and warmth.
- Carbohydrate Additions: Stir in a small handful of cooked rice or quinoa for a heartier meal.
- Leafy Swaps: Replace spinach with kale or chard for a more fibrous, textured green.
- Low-Sodium Diets: Use unsalted broth and season with herbs or lemon to control sodium content.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Fridge Storage: Cool completely and store chicken bone broth in a sealed container for up to 3 days in the fridge.
