Ingredients

For the stars

  • ½ cup Japanese sweet potato cooked and mashed
  • ½ cup arrowroot starch
  • Pinch of salt

For the soup

  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 yellow onion diced
  • 3 stalks of celery diced
  • 1 ½ cups carrots diced
  • Salt and pepper omit pepper for AIP
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ½ tsp dried sage
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp dried rosemary
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • ¾ lb shredded chicken cooked

Instructions

  • To make the stars, add the mashed sweet potato to a bowl and pour in the arrowroot starch, little by little, stirring as you go. Add the salt and stir until a dough forms. You should be able to roll the dough into a ball.
  • Add the dough to a clean surface and roll into a 1/4" sheet. Use a small cookie cutter (like this) to cut stars. Set aside on a clean plate.
  • Using a large stock pot or dutch oven, heat the avocado oil over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots and saute for 5-7 minutes or until lightly tender. Season with salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder, thyme, parsley, sage, and rosemary.
  • Pour in the broth and lemon juice and add the cooked chicken. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Bring the soup to a medium simmer and carefully add the stars, one by one. Very gently stir to avoid any sticking. Simmer the soup until the stars float.
  • Serve fresh in bowls!
