Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing mix
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Cook the Chicken:
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until it is no longer pink. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.
- Sauté Vegetables:
- In the same pot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

- Combine Chicken and Cheese:

- Season and Serve:
- Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
