Chicken soup for the lazy soul...

Ah hah!

I found this picture and remembered my extremely couch-worthy chicken soup recipe...

A real hoof stirrer if there ever was one!

How did I stumble on this recipe?

1. I was home alone (interpreted as "no small madam making extremely complicated food requests").
2. I was hungry.
3. I was not in the mood to switch on the gas and bring out pots.
4. I was hungry!
5. I had chicken.

See ehn, chicken is a life saver. Whatever else you choose not to have at home, just make sure you have chicken ehn? You will remember this advice and thank me the day you wake up by 12 midnight with an attack of the snackies, open your freezer and all you have there is...

Chicken!!!!!

Chicken of laive!

Okay o, over to the recipe...

Open your freezer (how else were you going to get the chicken? Duhhh!), and grab your chicken.

Throw said chicken into a bowl that can sit for at least ten minutes in the microwave without blowing into smithereens or melting into a pool of chicken plus plastic warreva.

Rinse the chicken.

Sprinkle on salt (to taste), pepper (to taste) and any other fresh or dried herbs and seasoning of your choice.

Slice all of a medium onion bulb into the bowl.

Stir to mix in the seasonings, add about a quarter cup of water and pop into the microwave for 5 minutes.

When your microwave 💡, open and turn the chicken over to let the other side cook. Return and cook for another 5 minutes, add some more water if needed.

Remember we are cooking from frozen, so you need all that time to ensure you are not eating raw chicken - salmonella and all that jazz!

When your microwave 🚨again, if you have chopped veggies, throw them on the chicken, mix in well and cook for 3 - 5 minutes.

Remove.

Eat.

Enjoy.

Yeah, yeah... microwave!
