Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 cups chicken broth (gluten-free)
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (approximately 1.5 lbs)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)

Instructions
