Chicken meat is a dietary product. Chicken broth can be used to cook many different soups. Recipes for some first courses are quite complicated for beginners. For example, pickles or hodgepodges take a lot of time to cook. Therefore, having learned how to cook pea soup with chicken, you will be surprised at the simplicity of its preparation.
How to use chicken economically and rationally?
One chicken can be enough to prepare the first and second courses for the whole family. If you are thinking of the second chicken cutlets, butcher the carcass and remove the meat from the bones for minced meat.
But no matter how hard you try, the meat will still remain on the bones. And they make great broth. Put the washed bones with meat in a saucepan, fill with water, add a whole peeled onion, carrots and celery or parsley root, a few peppercorns to it.
After cooking, the remains of meat are easily separated from the bones. Put the separated chicken pieces into the broth and remove the bones. Now with this broth you can cook a light pea soup.
How to choose peas for soup?
If the peas are still hard even after a long boil, it is quite possible that you bought the “wrong” variety - not shelling, but sugar. It is easy to distinguish between these two varieties. Shriveled dry peas are sugar varieties that do not accumulate much starch. These species need special heat treatment with steam, they are also used for canning.
Shelled peas are better suited for soup, their grains have a regular round shape with a smooth surface. It boils quickly, and if you got shelled or crushed peas, then things will go even faster.
Preparing peas with a boil
Peas need to be sorted out, dark and insect-damaged peas and debris removed, and then thoroughly washed from dust.
There is even more fast way preparing peas for cooking. Add a teaspoon to water baking soda and soak it for half an hour. Then drain the water and rinse the grains thoroughly. You can start heat treatment.

Pea soup can be made with broth, or just use water. Since we will have a rich taste due to smoked chicken fillet, we will not use the broth. You can use any greens in the soup - parsley, green onion, dill, cilantro.
If you are using dry peas, like I did, then you must first soak them in cold water for several hours. It is better to fill it with water and leave it overnight.
