Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Add the chicken skin-side down and sear until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables: Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside. In the same pot, add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until soft. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Step 3: Add the Liquids and Seasoning: Pour in the chicken broth, add the dried thyme and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pot.

Step 5: Shred the Chicken: Remove the chicken thighs, let them cool slightly, then shred the meat. Return the shredded chicken to the soup.
Step 6: Add the Cream and Fresh Herbs: Stir in the heavy cream, simmer for an additional 10 minutes, and add fresh parsley, adjusting seasoning as desired.
