Notes

Recipe Notes: To save time, you can use pre-cooked shredded chicken or a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove.
 
Special Tips: For an even heartier soup, add some diced potatoes to the broth. Use homemade chicken broth for the best flavor.
