Simple Chicken Soup

March 13, 2019

This is a simple and nutritious dish. It is great for using up leftover roast chicken. It is gluten-free, dairy-free, and it also follows the guidelines for a “food combining diet”.

4-6 Servings

Ingredients 

  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 med onion, diced
  • 4 med carrots, sliced thin
  • 2 celery sticks, sliced thin
  • 2 cups cooked chicken*, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 tsp. thyme
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 cups plain, unsweetened coconut milk beverage

Instructions

  • In a medium pot, heat avocado oil over medium heat.
  • Add onions, carrots, and celery and cover with a lid, lowering heat to a simmer until tender.
  • Remove lid and add the chicken, and spices and stir; heating for a few minutes over medium heat.
  • Add the water and coconut milk beverage, just bringing to a boil and then cover and lower temp to a simmer again. Simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Add more salt and pepper to taste.

Enjoy!

 

*I use leftover from a roast chicken. You can also use chicken breast, but I would add a spice mixture to the chicken while cooking for extra flavour
