Nourishing Chicken & Veggie Detox Soup is a wholesome, nutrient-packed recipe designed to boost your energy and promote glowing skin.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 quarts chicken stock (low sodium)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 white onion (diced)
  • 2 cups celery (chopped)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons ginger (shredded or minced)
  • 3 carrots (peeled and sliced into rounds)
  • 2 ½ cups broccoli (chopped)
  • 1 ½ cups frozen peas
  • ½ cup parsley (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes (reduce to ½ teaspoon if preferred)
  • Salt and pepper (crushed, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Chop all the vegetables into desired sizes.
  2. Prepare vegetables by dicing the onions and celery, peeling and slicing the carrots, and chopping broccoli.
  3. Finely mince the garlic cloves and shred or mince the ginger.
  4. Heat a large soup pot over medium heat, add olive oil, then sauté onions, celery, minced garlic, and ginger for 3 to 4 minutes.
  5. Place raw chicken breasts into the pot along with carrots, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, red chili flakes, turmeric powder, and chicken broth.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
  7. Use tongs to remove the chicken breasts onto a wooden chopping board. Add chopped broccoli, frozen peas, and parsley into the pot.
  8. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  9. Stir the shredded chicken into the pot and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  10. Taste the soup and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Serve the hot soup immediately.
