My favorite tips for this recipe
Turn up the heat. When you sear the chicken, make sure you have the heat on at least medium-high. Just until the outside is browned. This ensures optimal flavor.
Use the veggies you have on hand. This is a complete meal as-is, but feel free to add in other vegetables that you may have in your fridge like celery or tomatoes.
Cook to your consistency. I love how this soup is light. But if you’re looking for a thicker consistency, you can totally add in corn starch.
