About Chicken and freekah soup

Chicken and Freekeh Soup is a hearty and nutritious dish rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine. Freekeh, a roasted green wheat, serves as the star ingredient, providing a nutty flavor and a rich source of fiber, protein, and essential nutrients like iron and magnesium. Tender chicken pieces add lean protein, while an array of vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions boost the vitamin and mineral content. Seasoned with aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and a hint of cinnamon, the soup is both comforting and flavorful. Its low-fat profile and high fiber content make it a wholesome meal option that supports digestion and heart health. However, depending on preparation, sodium levels from broth or seasoning can be a concern, so opting for homemade or low-sodium stock is recommended. Perfect for warming up on cold days, this soup delivers both nourishment and satisfying taste in every bowl.
