Scale
1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breasts

8 cups of chicken broth
1 large lemon, juiced and zested

Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat and add the chicken. Sear each side for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 7 minutes until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
While the broth is heating, shred the cooked chicken using two forks. Once the broth simmers, add the shredded chicken back along with the lemon juice and zest.
