Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces gluten-free pasta
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 2 celery stalks, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup frozen peas
Instructions
Cook the gluten-free pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Remove from the pot and let cool slightly before shredding the chicken with two forks.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion, sliced carrots, and sliced celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and stir in the bay leaf, dried thyme, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
Once boiling, add the shredded chicken to the pot. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Add the cooked gluten-free pasta and frozen peas to the soup. Cook for another 5 minutes until the peas are heated through.
Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
