Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 carrot diced
  • 2 sticks of celery sliced
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves finely chopped
  • salt & pepper
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar optional
  • 1 litre chicken stock
  • 2 large chicken breasts skinless and boneless
  • 2 cups uncooked pasta (120g) I used fiorelli
  • 1 tsp parsley chopped - optional

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the chopped carrots, celery and onion. Saute, stirring often, for 6 - 8 minutes until the veg has softened. Add the garlic and cook for a further 1 - 2 minutes. Add the white wine vinegar and use it to scrape any of the browned bits off the bottom of the pan. 
  • Add the chicken stock and add the chicken breasts. Bring to the boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pan and simmer for 40 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the chicken from the stock and use two forks to shred it into bite size pieces. Add the chicken back to the pot,  add the pasta, stir and simmer for 6 - 8 minutes. 
  • Remove from the heat, and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley before serving.
