Ingredients
- 4 cups bone broth
- 1 lb chicken thighs, shredded
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients by shredding chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and dicing onion and garlic finely.
- Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add diced onions and sauté until translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, stirring to prevent burning.
- Pour bone broth into the pot and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add shredded chicken thighs, mixed vegetables, thyme, salt, and pepper to the simmering broth.
- Reduce heat to low and let the soup simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing flavors to meld together and vegetables to become tender.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
- Remove from heat and let soup rest for 2-3 minutes before serving hot.
- Ladle into bowls and optionally garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives.
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, shred the chicken and chop the vegetables in advance. Store them in the fridge until you're ready to cook.
- Use Homemade Bone Broth: If you have the time, homemade bone broth enhances the flavor and nutrition of your soup. Otherwise, store-bought broth works just fine!
- Customize Your Veggies: Feel free to swap in your favorite vegetables or whatever you have on hand. Zucchini, green beans, or spinach make great additions.
- Adjust the Seasoning: Taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasoning to your liking. A squeeze of lemon juice can brighten the flavors even more.
- Garnish for Flavor: Don’t skip the garnish! Fresh herbs like parsley or chives add a burst of freshness and color to your soup.
- Serve with Bread: Pair your soup with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal that will keep you full and satisfied.
