Step by Step guide

Step 1

In a 3-liter pot, place the chicken breast, peeled onion, and whole carrot. After boiling, cook for about 20–30 minutes. Then remove the chicken and cut it into cubes; the carrot and onion are no longer needed and can be discarded.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes. Slice the mushrooms and sauté them lightly to evaporate the water.

Step 3

Add the potatoes to the boiling broth. Cook for 5–7 minutes. Then add the mushrooms and chicken. If using block cheese, grate it on a coarse grater; if adding cheese from a can, cut it into small cubes and add it in small portions while stirring the broth.

Step 4

Chop the herbs and add them to the soup. Season with salt and spices to taste. Turn off the heat after a minute.

Step 5

While the soup is steeping, cut the bread into cubes and place them on a baking sheet or skillet that has been greased with vegetable oil. Put it in a preheated oven at 392°F for 5–10 minutes. Add the croutons individually to each bowl.
