MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Chicken Barley Chowder Categories: Soups, Chicken, Potatoes, Bacon, Corn Yield: 1 Recipe 4 lb Chicken 2 Celery ribs Parsley 4 qt Water 1 tb Salt 1/2 c Dry barley 1/2 lb Bacon; cooked/crumbled 2 lg Carrots; cubed Frozen corn Frozen peas Pepper; to taste 2 lg Potatoes; cubed Combine all ingredients in large pot and simmer until chicken is tender. Keep the ingredient list but ignore the instructions: barley needs an hour or so of gently boiling, chicken an hour of simmering, then boning and chopping the meat to return to the pot. Celery, carrots, and potatoes need 15 minutes of cooking, corn, parsley and black pepper 5 minutes, and peas just one, with the bacon bits used to garnish each bowl after the soup has been served. - JW Posted by: Rufus On Tue, 28 Nov 1995 171617 +1100 MMMMM
