INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1 medium Carrot (61g)
1 stalk Celery (40g)
1/4 medium Onion (45g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth (240g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
1 Bay Leaf
1/2 teaspoon Dried Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by dicing the carrot, celery, and onion into small, even pieces. Mince the garlic.
Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, and sauté until they become translucent and fragrant.
Add the diced carrot and celery to the pot. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Add the chicken to the pot and cook until it is lightly browned on all sides.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and add the bay leaf and dried thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Allow the soup to simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the cooked quinoa and let it warm through for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, remove the bay leaf, and serve hot.
