This chicken and rice soup is the embodiment of cozy vibes in a bowl, with dried tarragon that steals the show. Dried Dragon has a more muted taste than fresh, which offers a soft taste that supplements the other ingredients beautifully. Immediately brown rice is a huge time saving. To reduce further in preparation time, you are looking for pre -fiddled Mirepoix (carrots, onions and celery) in the aisle where prepared vegetables are sold.
