Corned Beef and Cabbage Soup

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan or pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 3–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
  3. Add the chopped garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth (or your choice of broth) and stir to combine.

  6. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1–2 hours, or until the corned beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
  7. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
