My version of Souplantation’s Chicken Soup is the first recipe from my self-published cookbook on Amazon, The Self-Love Quarantine 2020 Cookbook: Simple, Delicious, and Healthy Recipes for One.

Then, lower the heat to about medium to keep it at a steady boil for about 30 minutes before removing the chicken from the water broth and separating the meat from bone. To make the broth clearer and healthier,
refrigerate the broth. The fat will solidify and you can more easily remove more of the fat content. To add flavor to the broth, you can sprinkle in a little bit of salt and sugar. You can then toss the prepared chicken and noodles in the broth to heat up.
To make the noodles, you will need the following ingredients:
