Ingredients
6 cups chicken broth
1 cup carrots, thinly sliced
2 stalks celery stalks, chopped
½ teaspoon dried basil
dash garlic powder
dash black pepper
2 cups cooked chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cups cooked rice
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Pour the chicken broth into a large pot. Add the sliced carrots, chopped celery, basil, garlic powder, and pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and simmer for 10 minutes until the carrots are tender and flavors have melded.
Stir in the cooked chicken pieces and cooked rice, breaking up any clumps.
Return the soup to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently to ensure the chicken and rice are heated through to at least 165°F (74°C).
Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately in bowls.
