Ingredients
Scale
1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups of potatoes (any kind you like)
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, sliced
2 stalks of celery, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups of chicken broth

Instructions
Prepare your chicken: Start by trimming any excess fat from the chicken breasts, and then cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Sauté the veggies: In a large pot over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Toss in the onions, carrots, and celery. Cook until they’re soft and fragrant—about 5 minutes.
Add garlic: Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute.
Stir in the broth: Pour in the chicken broth and add the chicken pieces. Bring to a boil.
Add potatoes: Once boiling, toss in the diced potatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Finish with cream: Stir in the heavy cream and let the soup warm through for a few minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve hot: Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with your favorite garnishes.
