Chicken Veggie Soup (RECIPE)
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless chicken breast
- 1 yellow onion, quartered
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (use Kasandrinos)
- 4 large garlic cloves, divided (2 whole, 2 minced)
- 2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced into rounds
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon turmeric
- 2 cups baby spinach
- ¼ cup chopped fresh dill
- ½ cup chopped fresh parsley
- Juice and zest of 2 lemons
Instructions
- 1. In a large Dutch oven or pot, combine the chicken with 6 cups of water. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add the onion and 2 whole garlic cloves. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower the heat and let simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked.
- 2. When ready, remove the chicken from the pot and carefully shred it using two forks. Strain the broth using a mesh strainer over a large bowl. Discard the onion and garlic. Set the broth in its bowl aside for now.
- 3. Carefully wipe the pot and return to the heat. Add a couple tablespoons extra virgin olive oil and warm over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, carrots, and spices.
- 4. Return the shredded chicken to the pot. Stir to combine. Season with kosher salt.
- 5. Add the cooking broth and bring to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low, and cover partly. Cook for another 15 to 20 minutes (the carrots should be tender and cooked through).
- 6. Stir in the spinach, herbs, and lemon juice and zest. Transfer to serving bowls. Enjoy!
Enjoy!!
