Directions
Boil chicken and de-bone. Sautee onions and garlic in coconut oil until translucent then add cabbage and cook until wilted. Next, add broth and the rest of the ingredients including your chicken. Once everything is in the pot add water up to the top of the mixture, bring to a boil then simmer on medium heat until carrots are cooked through. It usually takes a couple of hours.
