- 2 ribs celery, sliced
- 4 carrots, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 tablespoons dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon powdered ginger
- 1 teaspoon marjoram
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt, depending on taste
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
- 12 cups water
