I found this recipe in a magazine last week and it looked pretty good so I thought we would try it out. Just like I thought it would be, it was good. We also liked it with a little bit of Sriracha sauce, but we put that stuff on everything. It was equally good without it too though. I put in a little more vegetables than it calls for as well.
The Recipe:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 tsp curry powder
- 4 cups orange-carrot juice (I used R.W. Knudsen Orange-Carrot juice from the organic section in Dillon’s)
- 1 (14 1/2 oz) can chicken broth
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup carrots, chopped
- 1 cup celery, chopped
- 4 oz dried noodles(2 cups) ( I used mini bow ties)
- 2 cups chredded cooked chicken
- 1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
In a 4-5 quart Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add curry powder and cook 1 minute. Carefully stir in orange-carrot juice, chicken broth, water, and salt; add carrots and celery. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered for 20 minutes. Add noodles, cook 6 minutes, stirring ocassionally. Add chicken and sugar snap peas; heat through. Stir in parsely and crushed red pepper.
