Authentic Hungarian chicken ragout soup

I felt a little sick so the last few days I spent in bed. This 'experience' motivated me to surprise myself with a soup that makes me stronger again.

Ingredients:
  • carrot
  • broccoli
  • cauliflower
  • green peas
  • salt, pepper
  • parsley
  • chicken fillet
  • chicken bouillon
  • oil
  • vermicelli
Directions:

Wash and cut the vegetables into pieces. Heat the oil in a large pot. Turn heat down to medium and add the chicken (chopped into cubes). Add salt and pepper. Keep stirring and sauté for a few minutes.
Add the chopped vegetables (except for peas otherwise it gets overcooked and falls apart!). Don't forget to lightly salt them as well.
Add the chicken bouillon (or water mixed with bouillon cube). Bring soup to a very slow simmer, but don't allow to come to rolling boil. Cook it this way for about 1,5-2 hours or until meat is soft. Don't cover your pot.
After about 1,5 hours add parsley and peas. In the last 5 minutes add vermicelli. If needed, adjust with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
