This low-carb version of chicken noodle soup is light and refreshing because it doesn't have pasta but instead spiralized zucchini noodles. Adding fresh lemon juice and zest gives the dish a bright citrus taste that is great for a warm but cool meal.
Ingredients: 2 tbsp olive oil. 1 onion, diced. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 6 cups chicken broth. 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, thinly sliced. 2 cups spiralized zucchini noodles. 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice. 1 tsp lemon zest. 1/2 tsp dried thyme. Salt and pepper to taste. Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish.
Instructions: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, saut until softened. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add sliced chicken thighs and cook until chicken is cooked through. Stir in spiralized zucchini noodles, lemon juice, lemon zest, and dried thyme. Simmer for another 5-7 minutes until zucchini noodles are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
