  2. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté for 3-4 minutes until onions are translucent.
  3. Stir in diced carrots and celery, cooking for an additional 4-5 minutes. Add chopped chicken and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Pour in broth and stir to combine. Increase heat to bring the soup to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add herbs, salt, and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes until vegetables are tender.

  7. Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve hot.
