Method

  1. Warm 2 tablespoons of the oil in a 5-quart (4.7L) pot over medium heat and cook the carrots and celery for 6 minutes, until softened.
  2. Add the chicken, broth, salt and pepper and simmer 15 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C). Lift it out and shred it.
  3. Return the chicken with the beans and cauliflower rice and simmer 3 minutes, until hot through. Off the heat, add the lemon juice and dill and finish each bowl with a drizzle of the rest of the oil.
Chef’s tipAcid first: All the lemon goes in off the heat. Boiled lemon juice tastes of nothing.
