Chicken Soup
This Chicken Soup recipe is soul warming and a great natural remedy during cold and flu season. It's easy to make with simple ingredients like chicken & vegetables. The perfect AIP, paleo & keto chicken soup recipe!
Ingredients
- 2 pastured chicken breasts, bone-in, skin-on
- 6 carrots, finely chopped
- 6 celery sticks, finely chopped
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 tsp sea salt
- 4 L filtered water
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large pot and sear chicken breasts, 2-minutes per side. Set breasts aside.
- Add onions and garlic into pot, stir and sauté until fragrant.
- Add carrots and celery and mix together with onions.
- Add chicken breasts back into pot and fill pot with ~4L of filtered water.
- Add salt and bring to a boil. Let boil for a couple of minutes then reduce to a simmer and cover.
- Let cook for at least 1-hour. The longer you cook the more flavour you'll get.
- Remove chicken from pot, place on a plate and shred.
- If you want pureed chicken soup, add soup (minus the chicken) to a blender and blend until smooth. Add shredded chicken in after blending.
- If you want a chunky chicken soup, leave as is and just add shredded chicken to the soup.
Notes
Feel free to skip the steps where you sear the chicken and slightly cook vegetables. These steps do help to create a more flavourful soup, but are not necessary.
