03 Method

Step 1

Place chicken and scraps from the outer layers and end of the onions, carrots, and celery in a large stockpot. Add bay leaves and 8 cups water and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until chicken is fork-tender, about 30 minutes.
Step 2

Remove chicken and shred; then strain the chicken broth using a fine-mesh sieve and discard the vegetable scraps.
Step 3

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, carrots, celery, garlic and thyme and cook until tender, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in the shredded chicken and rice, then return the broth to the stockpot and bring a boil.
Step 4

Reduce the heat and simmer until the rice is cooked about 20 minutes.
Step 5

Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with fresh parsley, if desired.
