Instructions

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from pot and set aside.

Reduce heat to low and add the cooked chicken back to the pot. Let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, until flavors have melded together.
