Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 3 cups chicken broth
- ¼ cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tbsp lemon zest, finely grated
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- Kosher salt, to taste

- ½ cup heavy cream
- 12 sprigs fresh thyme
- 5 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ large carrot, finely diced

Method
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium low heat. Add garlic, onion, celery, carrot, and a pinch of salt, and cook until onion is translucent. Avoid browning if you wish to keep the soup lighter in color.

- Remove herbs (if you wish) and check for taste. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
