Low Sodium Herb Chicken Soup with Root Vegetables

This soup builds its flavor the honest way — a long simmer with smashed garlic, fresh thyme, and rosemary pulls deep, savory notes straight out of the chicken and broth itself. Bone-in thighs give the base a rich, gelatinous body, while carrots, parsnips, and celery turn tender and sweet as they cook right in that broth. White rice soaks up all that flavor and adds gentle heartiness, so every spoonful feels like a full, warming meal. Shredded chicken folded back in at the end keeps the texture satisfying, and a scatter of fresh parsley brightens the whole pot right before serving. It's a comforting, well-seasoned bowl that works easily for anyone watching their sodium closely, letting herbs and slow-cooked vegetables do the heavy lifting instead. Simple, wholesome, and easy to make your own from the stovetop up.
