How To Make The BEST Paleo Chicken Soup!
Paleo Chicken Soup - a delicious, homemade chicken gluten free soup.
Ingredients
- 1 clove garlic (cut in 3 pieces)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon ground thyme
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 3 cups medium carrots (approximately 1 and 1/4 sliced)
- 3 cup stalks celery (approximately 1 diced small)
- 1 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded (approximately 2 )
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt and ground pepper (to taste)
Instructions
-
Place olive oil in a soup pot along with the garlic on the medium-low heat. Heat for 2 minutes and then remove the garlic. (Note: removing the garlic makes the recipe low fodmap. I also make this recipe sometimes without any garlic at all.)
-
Add the celery, carrots, and thyme and cook the vegetables for about 5 minutes on medium-low heat until they become softened. (Another option: skip the olive oil and cook the celery and carrots in several cups of chicken bone broth for about 20 minutes until tender.)
-
Add the chicken broth, salt, and pepper and continue to cook on medium-low for about 20 minutes.
-
Add shredded chicken and parsley and cook another 5 minutes until completely heated.
-
It is ready to serve. Can be stored for leftovers also.

Notes: If not on a low fodmap diet, you may mince garlic and leave in soup (or omit completely). There are recipes for Chicken Broth (Bone Broth) and Roasted Chicken Breasts on my site, which I used to make this recipe.
