Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 pieces chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 cup celery, chopped
• 1 piece carrot, small, chopped
• 1 cup zucchini, diced
• 1 cup bell pepper, chopped
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the pot. Cook until browned on both sides, about 6-8 minutes total. Remove from pot and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add celery, carrot, zucchini, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté for 5 minutes, until vegetables are just tender.

Step 4

Add the chicken broth to the pot, bringing it to a simmer.

Step 5

Return the chicken breasts to the pot and allow them to simmer in the broth for about 15 minutes, or until cooked through.

Step 6

Remove the chicken breasts, shred them using two forks, and return the shredded chicken to the soup.

Step 7

Stir in the baby spinach, thyme, and parsley, letting the soup simmer for another 3-5 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed before serving.
