Instructions: How to Cook Demos Chicken And Rice Soup
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the rice, dried thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Return the chicken breasts to the pot.
- Cover the pot and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.
- Remove the chicken breasts from the pot and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir to combine.
- Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
