Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
Verwenden Sie für einen intensiveren Geschmack Hähnchenschenkel anstelle von Hähnchenbrust. Damit sich die Aromen optimal verbinden, lassen Sie die Suppe auf niedriger Stufe lange garen. Für eine glutenfreie Variante kann das Mehl im Mehlschwitze durch eine glutenfreie Mischung ersetzt werden.
