Method:
In a stockpot, heat up avocado oil and cook chicken with a sprinkle each of salt and pepper for 15-20 minutes. If you are using chicken breast, you just need to cook for a max of ten minutes.
To the same stockpot, add all the vegetables except herbs (parsley, sage and thyme) and add just enough salt and pepper. Mix them well on medium heat for 4-5 mins.
Add chicken stock and bring the soup to a boil. Then, let simmer for 10 minutes.
Finally, garnish with herbs and mix well.
Transfer into soup bowls and enjoy this comfy soup.
