Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the tops off the garlic bulbs, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 30-35 minutes until soft.
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large pot over medium heat, sauté the chicken in olive oil until golden brown, about 5–7 minutes per side.
Add diced carrots and celery to the pot and sauté for another 5 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth and squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the pot. Bring to a simmer.
Reduce heat and let simmer for 20–25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken, shred it, and return it to the pot.
Stir in heavy cream, spinach leaves, soy sauce, and herbs. Heat through before serving.
