Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 3 medium leeks white and light green parts only, sliced
- 3 carrots sliced
- 3 ribs celery sliced
- 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes diced
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme leaves
- 1/2 cup half and half
- kosher salt to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- fresh parsley chopped for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by placing the chicken breasts in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Pour in enough chicken broth to cover the chicken by about an inch. If necessary, add water to achieve this level. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate to cool. When it's cool enough to handle, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- While the chicken is cooling, add the sliced leeks, carrots, celery, diced potatoes, and dried thyme to the broth in the pot. Bring the broth back to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Stir the shredded chicken and half and half into the pot with the vegetables. Season the soup with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Continue to cook and stir the soup until it is thoroughly heated. Serve the soup in bowls, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired. DEVOUR!
