Hearty Vegetable and Lentil Soup
Sautéed aromatics and tender chicken breast simmered with red lentils in a savory broth, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon for a vibrant, earthy flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.25 cup red lentils
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup yellow onion
0.5 cup carrots
0.5 cup celery
1 tsp garlic
2 cup vegetable broth
1 cup spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced yellow onion, carrots, and celery to the pot and sauté until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
Stir in the minced garlic and dried thyme, cooking for about one minute until the scent is released.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the whole chicken breast and dry red lentils.
Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the lentils are tender and chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken breast from the pot, shred it into bite-sized pieces with two forks, and return it to the soup.
Add the fresh spinach, sea salt, and black pepper, stirring until the greens are completely wilted.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice just before serving for a bright and balanced finish.
