      • Step 1
        Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add oil to the pan. Add 1 tablespoon thyme, 1 tablespoon tarragon, celery, carrot, onion, and garlic; saute 5 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
      • Step 2
        Add stock; bring to a boil. Add chicken, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Reduce heat to medium; cover and simmer 10 minutes or until chicken is done.
