Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 skinless, boneless chicken breast

  • ½ onion, finely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic

  • 1 (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning (such as Goya®)

  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley

  • ½ teaspoon celery seeds

  • 1 pinch salt

  • 1 bay leaf

  • 1 cup quartered grape tomatoes

  • 1 (32 ounce) package fat-free chicken broth

  • 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained

  • 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained

  • ½ cup parboiled brown rice

  • 3 peppercorns

  • 2 cups chopped spinach

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook whole chicken breast until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Reduce heat to low; add onion, garlic, sazon seasoning, parsley, celery seeds, salt, and bay leaf. Cook and stir until onion is soft and fragrant, 5 to 8 minutes.

  2. Stir grape tomatoes into the pot; cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Pour in chicken broth. Increase heat to high. Return chicken breast to the pot; add cannellini beans, chickpeas, brown rice, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil; cook for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until flavors combine, about 30 minutes.

  3. Remove pot from heat; stir in spinach until wilted. Transfer chicken to a plate; shred using 2 forks. Stir shredded chicken back into the soup.
