Chicken Detox Soup
This is a GREAT soup and is super easy to make and will last a couple of days. The toughest part about it is chopping all the veggies. It’s on the healthier side too, packed with veggies!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lb boneless skinless chicken breast
- 2 qt chicken broth (or try “better than bouillon”)
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 cups broccoli florets, chopped
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 1 bunch of celery, chopped
- 1 ½ cups frozen peas
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- ½ tsp crushed red pepper
- salt and pepper
Steps
- Heat up a large pot
- Add the olive oil and chopped onions — sweat the onions by themselves
- Add the celery and garlic and sautee for 5-6 minutes to soften
- Add the chicken breasts, broth, carrots, apple cider vinegar, crushed red pepper, and 1 tsp of salt
- Bring to a boil then lower the heat and simmer for 20+ minutes (until the chicken breasts are cooked through)
- Remove the chicken with tongs and place them in a metal bowl
- Add the broccoli, peas, and parsley to the pot and continue to simmer to soften the broccoli
- Shred the chicken breasts with two forks, and stir it back into the soup
- Once the broccoli is tender, taste, then salt and pepper as needed
