4 cups of chicken broth
Olive oil
Romano cheese for grating
Dashes of black pepper
Dashes of sea salt
1 box of your favorite noodles
In a large pot place a few drizzles of olive oil and place the chicken in to begin to brown. Place the lid on the pot slightly to the side. (Not fully on), for about 20 minutes.
Add all of the veggies and the broth and continue to simmer slowly for about 1 hour.
Remove the chicken from the pot and remove the meat from the bone.
Season the broth to taste.
Prepare the noodles.
Place the noodles in a bowl; add chicken, broth and grating cheese.
This soup is well worth the while to make. It will warm the whole family.
Enjoy with Love,
