Ingredients

    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 Garlic Cloves
    1 large onion
    4 stalks of celery
    6 medium carrots
    2 cups sliced mushrooms - baby bella are best
    2 quarts chicken stock
    1 fully cooked rotisserie or roasting chicken, minus wings, cut into bite size pieces
    salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Chop all vegetables into bite size pieces. Heat tablespoons olive oil in a large stock pot; add carrots, then celery, onion, garlic and mushrooms. Saute all until almost soft, 5-8 minutes, then add broth (2 containers or quarts of chicken broth) and chicken. Bring to a simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes to allow vegetables to cook fully; reduce heat to low and let sit for at least 40 minutes. The longer it sits on low, the better it will taste. It can be left for up to 3 hours in a stock pot, stirring occasionally, or transferred to a crock pot and put on low for entire day.

Yields 12 servings (roughly 1 - 1.5 cups, or 2 ladles)
