Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned (about 5-7 minutes).

02

Step

Place the chicken drumsticks in the pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the meat is easily removed from the bone.

03

Step

Remove the chicken drumsticks from the pot and set aside to cool slightly. Skim any excess fat from the surface of the stock. Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones and shred or chop it. Return the chicken meat to the pot.

04

Step

Add the uncooked barley and elbow macaroni to the pot. Stir in the frozen cauliflower and broccoli, frozen corn, whole peeled tomatoes (crushing them slightly with your hands as you add them), and tomato sauce.

05

Step

Bring the soup back to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, or until the barley is tender and the flavors have melded together. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

06

Step

Serve hot and enjoy!

For a richer flavor, use chicken broth instead of water.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
Garnish with fresh parsley or a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.

    My kids loved this! I was able to sneak in a bunch of veggies they wouldn't normally eat.
