Slow-Cook Chicken Soup

Makes 8 Servings

2 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

2 celery stalks, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces

1 onion chopped

4 sprigs fresh parsley

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, or 1 tsp dried

3/4 tsp dried thyme

1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper

1 pound skinless bone-in chicken breasts

1 pound skinless bone-in chicken thighs, trimmed of fat

7 cups fat-free low-sodium chicken broth

(I used two pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts in place of the 1 pound chicken thighs)

In a slow cooker, place the parsnips, carrots, celery, onion, parsley, dill, thyme, and pepper. Place the chicken breasts and chicken thighs on top of the veggies. Add broth; cover and cook 8-20 hours on low.

About 1 hour before the cooking time is up, remove the chicken from the soup and let cool about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the bones and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Return the chicken to the slow cooker and cook 50 minutes longer.
