 Ingredients:

 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 carrots, peeled and diced

2 celery stalks, diced

8 cups chicken broth

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 bay leaf

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions:

• Take a tablespoon of olive oil in a pot and heat it at medium temperature. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the pot and keep them aside for some time. Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
• Add the carrots and celery to the pot and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
• Return the chicken to the pot and add the chicken broth, dried thyme, and bay leaf.
• Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
• After removing the chicken from the pot, shred it for some time. Discard the bones and return the shredded chicken to the pot.
• Add little salt and pepper in soup for the taste.
• Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
• If you like your soup to be thicker, you can add a few tablespoons of flour to the pot when you add the vegetables. If you prefer a spicier soup, you can add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
