Equipment
- Pot
Ingredients
- 4 Pasture Raised Whole Chicken Legs you could use 6 whole thighs
- 2 tbsp Avocado Oil
- 1 cup Celery - finely sliced
- 4 Whole limes cut in half
- 2 cups Carrots - chopped
- 4 cups Raw Organic Spinach
- 64 oz Chicken Bone Broth
- 6 cups hot water make sure water is hot so that your soup comes to a boil faster.
- 2 tbsp Sea Salt You will not use this all at once. You will use about 1 teaspoon to season chicken with and the rest will go into broth.
- 2 tsp finely ground pepper to season chicken with
- 1 cup sliced organic tomatoes Optional topping - I used sweet cherry tomatoes
- 3 Avocados optional topping
- Shredded goat cheese optional topping
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro optional topping
- Siete grain free chips Optional add in
Instructions
- Put avocado oil into the pot you are going to make your soup on. Turn heat on and let oil get warm.
- Open up your package of chicken spray with avocado oil, sprinkle with salt & pepper. Place that side of chicken down into hot pan to brown. Now spray the top side of chicken with avocado oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Slice up celery while chicken is browning. Turn the chicken over to brown the other side and add in celery. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Chop up your carrots while the other side of chicken is browning with celery.
- Once both sides of chicken are browned pour in your broth and hot water. Add carrots. Add juice from 4 limes. Bring to a boil. While waiting cut up any toppings you want.
- Once water is boiling your chicken should be perfectly cooked. This is a good time to taste your soup and add in the remaining salt, if needed.
- Take out your cooked chicken and place on cutting board. Turn heat down on soup so veggies don't get too soft. Debone the chicken and cut up.
- Add your chicken back to your soup, turn heat off, add in spinach. Your soup is hot enough that your spinach will cook fast and not get wilty.
- Your soup is ready to eat
- Pour into bowls or large mugs and add your toppings!
- Enjoy the leftovers
Notes
I used pasture raised chicken. Pasture raised chickens are allowed to roam land, eat insects, and live off the land as they should. They are not feed a vegetarian diet and pumped full of antibiotics.
