Instructions
- Heat 2 Tbsp avocado oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add 3 large carrots, peeled and chopped, and 4 cloves garlic, minced. Stir to combine, cover the pot, and cook 2–3 minutes, until the carrots begin to soften.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the pot. Add 2 large chicken breasts, chopped (about 1 to 1.5 lbs), in an even layer. Allow the chicken to brown on the bottom for 3–4 minutes, then stir the chicken and vegetables together.
- Add 2 quarts chicken broth, 2 cups gluten-free pasta noodles, 2 medium zucchini squash, chopped, 1 large crown broccoli, chopped into florets, 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning, and 1 ½ tsp sea salt. Stir to combine.
- Increase heat to bring the soup to a full boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer (low heat) and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and the chicken is cooked through, about 15–20 minutes.
- Taste the soup and add more sea salt if desired. Serve hot.
