Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot. Place uncooked chicken breasts in the boiling broth. Boil the chicken on a gently boil for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the broth and shred with forks. Make sure to keep the broth.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in diced onion and celery and cook for 5 minutes. Pour in the flour and stir to coat the vegetables.

Slowly pour in the reserved chicken broth while stirring the vegetables. Keep stirring for about 5 minutes or until the mixture starts to thicken and comes to a boil.

Stir in garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Next stir in the half and half. Keep stirring until it starts to thicken more, about 2 minutes.

Stir in the shredded chicken and mixed vegetables. Mix to combine and then serve warm.
