Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large pot, add the chicken. Pour in enough water to cover the chicken and bring it to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    While the chicken is cooking, peel and chop the carrots and onion. Chop the celery and mince the garlic.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot used for the chicken, add a small amount of oil if needed, then add the chopped carrots, celery, and onion. Sauté over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  2. 4

    Add Garlic and Seasonings

    Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for an additional minute. Then, add the bay leaves, thyme, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 5

    Combine Chicken and Broth

    Return the cooked chicken to the pot, add the chicken broth, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 20-30 minutes to let the flavors meld.

  4. 6

    Shred Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the pot again and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. Discard the skin and bones.

  5. 7

    Finish the Soup

    Return the shredded chicken to the pot, stir in the chopped parsley, and let simmer for another 5 minutes before serving.
