Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 2 stalks celery
- 1/4 cup chopped onions
- salt and pepper
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 pound boneless and skinless chicken thighs
- 8 ounces riced cauliflower
Instructions
- Begin with the Base: Heat two tablespoons of avocado oil in a large saucepan over a medium flame. Add the chopped celery and onions to the pan, seasoning them with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Stir frequently and cook until the vegetables soften, which should take about 5 minutes.
- Aromatic Infusion: Introduce minced garlic, dried thyme leaves, and paprika into the mix, cooking for an additional minute until the aroma of the spices fills the air, signaling they're perfectly toasted and fragrant.
- Broth Introduction: Pour in four cups of chicken broth, increasing the heat to bring the concoction to a rolling boil.
- Add Chicken and Cauliflower: To the boiling broth, add the cubed boneless, skinless chicken thighs and riced cauliflower. Lower the heat to a gentle simmer, allowing the soup to cook uncovered until the chicken pieces are thoroughly cooked and the cauliflower rice is soft, which will take around 12 minutes.
- Final Seasoning: Once everything is cooked, take a moment to taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed to suit your palate perfectly.
