  • 2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 Onion
  • 2 stalks Celery, chopped small
  • 2 medium Carrots, chopped small
  • 1 clove Garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger, grated

  2. To a soup pan add 1 tablespoon of oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and brown. Remove and set aside.
