Ingredients | Soup Recipes With Chicken Broth And Potatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed

4 medium carrots, chopped

1 large sweet potato, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1 (32 ounce) carton low-sodium chicken broth, divided

1 cup chopped yellow onion

2 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed

2 tablespoons minced garlic

3 sprigs fresh thyme

1 large sprig fresh rosemary

¼ cup water, or to taste

ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add carrots and sweet potato; cook and stir for about 5 minutes, adding a splash of chicken broth if veggies begin to burn before they are soft. Add onion. Cover and cook, stirring every few minutes, until sweet potato is soft, about 5 more minutes.

While sweet potatoes are cooking, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and saute until browned, 3 to 5 minutes, adding a dash of olive oil if needed. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add remaining chicken broth, thyme sprigs, and rosemary sprig. Add water if there is not enough broth.

Bring soup to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until all veggies are thoroughly cooked and flavors have melded together, 30 to 45 minutes.

Season with pepper and remove herb sprigs before serving.
