Make the best of all chicken parts with this easy and delicious chicken wings soup! Warming, comforting soul food!

Chicken Wings Soup Recipe

We are such soup people! We must have soup with every lunch or a meal is not complete. We particularly love sour soups, loaded with veggies like this chicken wings soup. We either make our own borscht to add a special touch of sourness to our soup or add tons of lemon juice and/or yogurt to achieve the desired sourness.

This chicken wings soup can also be made with chicken backs in addition to the wings and is one of the easiest recipes and pretty much our go to soup. It takes less time to prepare and cook, it’s pretty light as the wings don’t have much fat and it’s a pretty good way to use chicken parts (like back and necks) that don’t normally go well with a lot of recipes. This easy chicken soup is particularly useful when buying whole chicken.

For this chicken wings soup I like to boil the wings first and when almost done, remove the meat from bones before continuing cooking the soup. But you can always keep the wings whole, no need for this extra step (unless you belong to my freak club in which case be super, super neat and make sure no skin is mixed with your meat). Either way works just as fine and using the whole wings is actually a time saver, if you’re ok with that part.

I love it that I can add as many vegetables as I like and I usually add plenty! This chicken wings soup is also a really nice way to trick my daughter into eating vegetables since she loves soups. They might not be as nutritious as they are when served raw but the no veggies alternative is not an option either.
