Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb halal chicken breasts or thighs, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup sliced carrots

- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup grated Parmesan (halal-certified)
- 2 cups baby spinach
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chicken, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper. Cook until lightly browned.
- Add onion, garlic, carrots, and potatoes. Cook 3–4 minutes until softened.

- Add spinach and cook 1–2 minutes until wilted.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. Add red pepper flakes for heat if desired.
Notes
- For a thicker soup, simmer a bit longer to reduce the broth.
- To keep it dairy-free, use coconut cream and a dairy-free Parmesan substitute.
