If you are looking for a healthier take on chicken soup, using chicken wings can boost the nutrient content and lower the fat count. Full of vegetables, chicken wing soup provides the nutrients and vitamins you and your family need. Chicken wings contain less fat than other parts of the chicken, making them a good choice for people trying to cut out fat or lose weight. Even if you've never cooked soup, give this recipe a try.
Step 1
Brush the chicken wings with sesame oil and heat the peanut oil in a large pot over medium to high heat, until hot. Add the chicken wings and cook for about five minutes, turning them to brown on all sides.
Step 2
Add the sliced carrot and stir for three minutes. Then add the garlic, zucchini, onion, ginger and chili powder. Stir for another three minutes. Add the soy sauce and chicken broth.
Step 3
Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 10 minutes or until the chicken wings are cooked. Test this by inserting a fork in one of the wings. If the fork can be inserted with ease, the wings are ready. Serve hot.
