Ingredients

2 cups chicken bone broth

Preparation

Heat a soup pot over medium heat and melt the butter (2 Tbsp). Add the diced celery (¼ cup) and diced zucchini (¼ cup) and sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened but not browned.

Season both sides of the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then place it in a hot skillet with a little butter. Cook for 5–7 minutes per side, or until golden brown. When finished cooking, shred the chicken and set aside.

Pour in the chicken bone broth (2 cups) and bring to a simmer. Add the shredded chicken (6 oz), fresh parsley (1 Tbsp), and fresh thyme leaves (1 tsp). Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Simmer the soup gently for 10–15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese (¼ cup) and continue simmering until the cheese is melted and the soup is rich and slightly creamy.

Drizzle the olive oil (1 Tbsp) over the soup just before serving for added richness. Serve hot, optionally garnished with extra fresh herbs.

BAKING-SHEET SCALING CLUB:
Preheat Oven: Set to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Prep Ingredients: In a bowl, toss shredded chicken, celery, zucchini (or frozen vegetables), melted butter, dried parsley, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle in Parmesan cheese and mix lightly.
Assemble: Spread the mixture evenly on the baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle 2 Tbsp chicken broth (or water) over the top to keep it moist without pooling liquid.
Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, stirring once halfway, until vegetables are tender and the dish is heated through. The small amount of broth will evaporate, leaving a cohesive, flavorful mix.
Serve: Scoop into bowls and serve hot.

Scott is a class act. This man is leading the way for MetFix. It was an honour and privilege to be invited to FAMS to present to his team there. The men and women on that team are committed to excellence and lucky to have a fitness/health leader like Scott to show them the way.
