2 tbsp Butter (optional)
1 cup Carrots - diced
¾ cup Leak Leaves (or green onion tops)
1 cup Okra - sliced
¼ cup Cilantro
1 Lemon - juice (reserve ½ for garnish)
½ cup Rice - white
8 cups Water
3 tbsp Fody Chicken Soup Base
2 tbsp Gluten Free Flour
¾ tsp Salt
½ tsp Pepper
2 tsp Curry Powder

1 Bay Leaf
¼ tsp Crushed Red Pepper (optional)
¼ tsp Coriander Seeds (optional)

Instructions
Prep. Start by washing your produce and peeling your carrots. Dice carrot into ½ inch cubes, slice celery into ½ inch pieces. Set aside. Remove the tips and the stems from the okra, then slice into ½ inch pieces. Chop cilantro and slice leek leaves into ¼ inch strips, much the way you would a green onion. Lastly, rinse chicken thighs and pat dry. Trim excess fat from your chicken and cube into bite sized pieces.
Saute. Heat a large pot over high heat. Add butter and oil - once heated through, add carrots, coriander seeds, bay leaf, salt and pepper to the pot. Saute, stirring occasionally until nicely browned, about 5 minutes. Add leek, flour, and spices - saute stirring frequently for 1-2 minutes until leek have softened and roux has formed (flour, spices, butter and oil become frothy).
Add. Whisk in one cup of water, ensuring no clumps have formed. Add the remainder of your water, chicken stock powder, chicken, and rice. Bring to a boil.
Simmer. Once your ingredients are up to temperature, add okra, cover your pot and reduce heat to low. Simmer until okra are tender, and chicken and rice are cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Finish. Add cream, lemon juice, and cilantro. Simmer for a few more minutes to allow flavors to combine and soup to come back up to temperature.
Serve. Garnish with cilantro and a lemon wedge. Serve with Gluten Free Na’an for a seriously satisfying and cozy winter meal.
Enjoy!
