Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and add the raw chicken, along with the salt, black pepper, oregano, fresh thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer.

  6. Remove the chicken and shred it with two forks, returning it to the pot.
