Place a large stockpot over medium heat and add olive oil. Once the oil has warmed, add the chopped onions to the pot sauté until translucent. Add the rest of the vegetables and garlic as you chop them to the stockpot—season with salt and pepper. Add herbs and stock. Bring the stockpot to a boil and cook until potatoes begin to fall apart.
Add shredded chicken—salt and pepper to taste.
Serve with a slice of crusty toasted bread. One of my favorites is La Brea’s rustic garlic bread.
Note: If your soup lacks flavor, add salt and pepper a little at a time until you reach a flavorful stock. Usually, when chicken soup lacks flavor, it's the salt that's missing.
