Soft food recipes - Chicken & Sweetcorn Soup

Another meal idea for soft foods/post-surgery recovery.

Personally, I love this soup and there's no better kind of soup for healing and recovery than chicken soup. The corn just makes it a little better.

20g butter

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

5 chicken thigh fillets, trimmed and sliced

1 litre Real Stock Chicken

2 x 420g cans creamed corn

2 x 125g cans corn kernels, drained

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 cup sour cream

Salt and cracked black pepper

1/3 cup chopped coriander leaves

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.

Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes.

Stir in the stock, creamed corn, corn kernels and sugar.

Bring to the boil then simmer for 15 minutes or until the chicken is very tender and you’re happy with the consistency.

Remove from the heat and stir through the sour cream, salt and pepper. Top with the coriander and serve.

For more varied texture, process one of the tins of whole corn kernels.
