- Preheat oven to 325° F. Place chicken breast on metal sheet pan. Roast in oven until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. Slice chicken into ¼” thick pieces and set aside.
- In a 4 quart pot, melt the butter. Add carrot, celery, and garlic and sauté on medium heat for 5 minutes. If using chopped onion instead of pearl onions, add it here.
