To make this hearty soup, gather these simple but powerful ingredients:

  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 4 cups chicken broth

Step-by-Step Directions

Step 1: Sauté the Vegetables

In a large pot, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened. This softening creates a sweet base for your soup.

Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer. Cook until the chicken is fully cooked. Trust the process; let it do its work.

Step 5: Shred the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it with a fork. Return the shredded chicken to the pot. This step brings back the warmth and richness to the soup.

Step 6: Season the Soup

Season with salt and pepper. Taste, and let it simmer for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley. A sprinkle of green adds a fresh touch and invites everyone to the table.
