Instructions

Heat the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a Dutch oven or a soup pot. Sauté the 1 medium onion, 2 medium carrots, 3 sticks celery, 2 medium potatoes, and 2-3 garlic cloves for 5 minutes.
Season with Kosher salt and pepper and add in the 2 cups cooked chicken, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 tablespoon curry powder and 1 tablespoon gluten-free flour. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
Add in the 1/2 cup Jasmine rice, 5 cups low-sodium chicken broth and 14 ounces unsweetened coconut milk. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 18-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the rice and potatoes to get tender.
Peel, core and chop the 2 large sour apples and add them to the soup. Continue to simmer for 2-3 more minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

For an extra flavor boost, consider adding some lemon juice or zest before serving.
