Healing Ginger Chicken Soup

This recipe is warming and healing for any kind of virus or infection, like colds and flu or simply to aid in breathing, esp. for elderly people. Ginger is an incredible healing herb with so many restorative and immune building properties. I'd caution not to put too much ginger, only because it will drown out the other, more subtle flavors. Ginger is legendary for relieving nausea and promoting appetite, normalizing blood pressure, regulating blood sugar, lowering inflammation, and helping digestion, and so much more!

Healing Ginger Chicken Soup

 Chop up 3 (three) medium-size onions and several cloves of garlic in a food processor.

Add those to a large pot of boiling water—add sea salt and dried or fresh oregano.

Chop up several carrots and add them to the soup.

Take a decent sized bunch of fresh organic parsley and remove the excess stems, then chop up the parsley along with a few small pieces of ginger (the more ginger you add, the spicier the soup will be, but too much will ruin the other subtler flavors in the soup—I suggest starting with less and learning how much ginger you like from experience).

Add the parsley and ginger to the pot.

Simmer for 20-30 minutes over a low boil.

Add your cut up chicken pieces with skin and bones intact—rinse the chicken but leave the skin—you can use breasts with the bone or even legs and thighs, any parts really.

Cook on a slow boil for an hour minimum, preferably longer, but this isn't really a broth, so ten hours is not required!

You'll notice all that green parsely, which when combined with the ginger and oregano, makes a potent healing soup!

You can serve alone or with the rice of your choice or various "soup" pastas and home baked bread if you fancy.
