Roast Chicken White Wine Soup

Ingredients:
1/2 to 3/4 of a roast chicken, picked from the bone
4 Cups Chicken Broth
4 Cups Water
1/2 bottle of dry white wine
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 vidalia onions, chopped
1 head of garlic, peeled and smashed
2 stalks of celery, chopped
2 Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and diced
5 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 medium zucchini's, cut into half moons
1/3 Cup of chopped fresh parsley
2 bay leaves
1 tsp paprika
1 Tbsp dried oregano
Fresh ground salt and pepper

1. Heat large stock pot over med heat. Add the oil and the onions, sauteeing for about 5-6 minutes, then add the smashed garlic. Continue to cook together for about 3 minutes. Pour in the wine, broth and water. Season with bay leaves, paprika, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, partially cover, and allow to rapidly boil for 30 minutes. Take the temp down and bring the soup to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 45 minutes.
2. Stagger the vegetables however you like, but I did them this way so the vegetables would be tender, but not mushy. I added the celery and allowed to simmer for 15 minutes. Add both kinds of potatoes and allow to simmer for 15 minutes. Add the carrots and allow to simmer for 30 minutes. Finally, toss in the zucchini and the chopped parsley. Let the flavors meld for 10-15 minutes and serve.

    That sound delicious and I'm always looking for a good soup recipe. Eventually (even here in the deep South) winter will come! And it can't come soon enough for me!

    It's a zucchini cut in half, lengthwise, and then sliced crosswise.

    Hmmm...wondering if I can saute the onions before work in the morning and then throw everything in the slow cooker on low for the day. Going to have to try it!
