Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the cubed chicken to the pot and cook until it’s no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
- Rinse the wild rice under cold water and drain. Add the wild rice, chicken broth, dried thyme, bay leaf, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for about 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and cooked through.
- Once the soup is ready, remove the bay leaf and taste for seasoning. Adjust the salt and pepper if needed.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
