    • 🧈 1 teaspoon butter
    • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • Vegetables

    • 4 stalks celery, diced
    • ½ large carrot, shredded
    • 🧅 ⅓ white onion, diced

  • Seasonings

    • 🧂 Salt to taste
    • Ground black pepper to taste

  • Staple Ingredients

    • 3 cups split peas, rinsed
    • 🧄 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

  • Meat & Stock

    • 1 ham bone
    • 5 cups chicken stock
    • 2 cups water, or as needed
    • 1 cup diced ham

STEPS

1

Gather the ingredients.

2

Melt butter and oil in a stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add celery, carrot, onion, and salt; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in peas and garlic.

3

Nestle ham bone into the pot; add stock and diced ham. Add enough water so that liquid is about 1 1/2 inches from the top of the pot; bring to a boil.

4

Reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer, stirring every 30 minutes and scraping the bottom of the pot, until peas are mostly disintegrated, about 2 1/2 hours.

5

Remove ham bone from the pot and place on a cutting board until cool enough to handle. Remove any meat from the bones and cut into bite-sized pieces; stir into soup until warmed through and season with salt and pepper.
