Chicken Barley Soup - healthy recipe channel- healthy recipes - soup recipe - dinner recipes
Chicken Barley Soup has got to be one of my top 5 soup recipes of all times. I learned how to make barley soup in my teens when I used to work in a restaurant called 99's in New England. The Head Chef would always make an incredible Beef Barley soup as the soup of the day when ever we had left over prime rib from the previous nights closing. The first time I tried his Barley soup I was hooked on this grain as a soup ingredient. I made sure I watched him cook this delicious soup and helped him with the prep until I could make the same exact recipe at home for myself. Many years have passed and I have made dozens of different variations of barley soups through out the years since. This is a great recipe to try as part of your meal prep, or to include in your arsenal of dinner recipes. For sure a must try if you have not already.

PRINTABLE RECIPE & NUTRITION INFO:
INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon oil
1 lb beef stewing meat
1 small onion finely diced
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 large carrots peeled and chopped
2 ribs celery chopped
1/2 cup pearl or pot barley rinsed
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 bay leaves
4 cups low sodium beef broth
Instructions
Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add oil and let heat 1 minute.
Brown meat in batches (allowing space around each piece) medium-high heat. Remove from pan and place in a 4-6 quart slow cooker.
Add onions to the saute pan and cook over medium heat until translucent — they will pick up all the brown bits left by the meat! Stir in garlic, salt, Italian seasoning and pepper and cook 1 minute.
Add the onions to the slow cooker on top of the beef, along with the carrots, celery, barley, tomato paste and bay leaves. Stir well, and then stir in the beef broth.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until vegetables and barley are tender.
Stir in fresh parsley as desired and season to taste. Serve.

Chicken, Black Bean & Barley Soup | Crockpot Slow Cooker
Even though winter feels like spring here on the East Coast of the US, the calendar says differently, at least elsewhere in the northern hemisphere. If you’re still in the deep freeze, or just in the mood for a very hearty soup, this chicken, black bean and barley soup will satisfy. I served mine with a dollop of sour cream and a splash of hot sauce. A thick slice of crusty bread or a square of cornbread would be perfect too.
