Ingredients

  • 7 cups chicken broth

  • 3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

  • 1 onion, quartered

  • 1 cup chopped carrots

  • 1 small turnip, chopped

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 cup frozen French-cut green beans

  • cup converted rice (such as Uncle Ben's®)

  • ¾ (8 ounce) package cream cheese

Directions

  1. Bring chicken broth, chicken breasts, onion, carrots, turnip, and celery to a boil in a large pot until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove chicken from broth; strain and discard vegetables. Add green beans and rice; continue to simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes more.

  2. Cut chicken into chunks. Stir chicken and cream cheese into broth until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
