Method

Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and sear on all sides until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion, garlic, celery, and carrots. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the chicken to the pot. Add the diced potatoes, chicken broth, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Soup

    Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

  5. 5

    Shred the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the pot and shred the meat. Return the shredded chicken to the soup. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot with Cuban toast on the side.
