Method

  1. 1

    Warm the avocado oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast pieces along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, searing for 4 to 5 minutes until lightly browned on all sides.

  2. 2

    Stir the minced garlic into the pot and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Pour in the chicken broth and water, then stir in the gold potatoes, white jasmine rice, and dried whole thyme. Bring the liquid to a lively boil over high heat, which takes about 3 to 4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer gently for 14 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and the rice grains are plump and soft.

  5. 5

    Remove the soup from the heat. Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Let the soup rest off the heat for 2 minutes before serving warm.

Tip

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. As the soup sits, the rice will absorb liquid, so stir in a splash of warm chicken broth or water when reheating.
