Coconut-Lime-Wild-Rice-Chicken Soup

2 lg skinless boneless chicken breasts

2-3T coconut oil (melted in the pot)

3 carrots

2c celery with tops

1 med. onion

1 lg. elephant garlic clove

½c organic wild rice

1 lg. lime - juice and zest

6c water

2-3T powdered chicken soup base

Chop-slice then combine the first 7 ingredients in a big soup pot with 1 cup of the water. Simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and simmer another 10 minutes. Check, stir and continue to simmer another 45 minutes or longer. This soup is a gentle, clear broth soup, unlike that where a browning and deglazing technique is employed. This is an especially nice, simple recipe for when you're really feeling sick with the flu or a cold. . .Lin
