Chicken and Herb Tomatoe Soup 145 Cal.


100g chicken breast, sliced very thin. seasoned w/Boutique House Seasonings
-1 medium tomato, chopped
-1 clove garlic, smashed
-1/2t dehydrated onion
-3 leaves of fresh italia parsely, chopped... See More
-1/2" sprig of fresh rosemary, thyme, and sage (a little goes a long way)
-pinch of paprika, onion powder, chili powder
-salt (optional, but tastes best with at least 1/2t)
-3/4c water
-1t LouAna coconut oil

take 1/2t of coconut oil and add to a heated saucepan over med-hi heat (preferably not non-stick). Add chicken and allow to sear. Its ok if pieces of the chicken stick to the pan. once thoroughly browned, remove chicken. lower heat to med.

add the other 1/2t of coconut oil to the pan, add garlic. mix and allow garlic to flavor the oil for a few seconds. add onion, and then tomato before the garlic becomes brown. use the tomato to bring up the cooked bits of chicken. add water and seasonings. allow to reduce for about 5min. add chicken and herbs. keep tasting the soup, for the herbs flavor the soup almost immediately. you can remove them after a couple seconds if it gets too strong. simmer for a few more minutes, then serve.
