Leticia's Yummy Chicken Soup

A friend from church needed some help with some tech stuff, which I volunteered Jeremy for. She served us a very yummy dinner, everything was so good. Here is a recipe I asked her for because it actually tasted so healthy--and it is!

*1 whole organic free range chicken (so the taste is very mild)
*four celery stalks (organic -- don't ever buy celery that is not organic) - chopped
*two organic carrots - diced
*one cup of basmati rice
*two large organic potatoes - diced

Remove with kitchen scissors most of the fat from the chicken and hanging skin. Place it in a pot with hot water and bring it to a boil. Boil for one hour, adding water as it evaporates. Remove the chicken from the pot and remove all the meat from the bones and discard all of the skin. Place chicken pieces back in the pot along with potato and carrots. Boil until the carrots and potatoes are tender. Now add the chopped celery and the rice. Boil at medium heat until rice is cooked.

When you save the left overs, the next day you will have to add chicken broth when you reheat the soup. If you add water, the chicken flavor will be too weak.
