2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
6 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic; sauté for about 5 minutes until onion is translucent.
Add Vegetables: Stir in sliced carrots and shredded cabbage. Cook for 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add Chicken and Broth: Stir in shredded chicken. Pour in chicken broth and add salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
Simmer: Bring soup to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
Finish: Adjust seasoning to taste. Stir in fresh dill just before serving.
Serve: Ladle into bowls and serve hot with bread, salad, or your favorite side.
Notes
Creamy Option: Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream after simmering for a richer version.
Add-Ins: Try diced potatoes, spinach, or green beans for extra veggies.
Spicy Kick: Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce.
Turkey Swap: Use leftover turkey instead of chicken—great for post-holiday meals.
Gluten-Free: Ensure broth is certified gluten-free and pair with gluten-free bread.
