Chicken and White Bean Soup Anyone Can Cook!

chicken breast

🥗Healthier: skinless chicken thighs

💰Cheaper: canned chicken

Skinless thighs are more flavorful and cheaper than breast.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast adds umami without dairy.

Start by heating extra virgin olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Add 1/2 cup diced onion, 3/4 cup diced celery, and 3/4 cup diced carrot to the pot; sauté until they become translucent.

Add 4 cloves of minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Incorporate 1 tablespoon of tomato paste and let it cook for about 2 minutes to develop flavor.

Add 1 can of diced tomatoes and 1 teaspoon of dried thyme to the pot; mix well.

Shred leftover rotisserie chicken and add it to the pot.

Pour in approximately 3 cups of chicken stock, just enough to cover the chicken.

Season with kosher salt and black pepper to taste; let it simmer for 3 to 5 minutes to combine flavors.

Add 1 can of white kidney beans to the pot and stir.

Finish the soup by adding fresh tarragon and fresh basil just before serving.
