Chicken soup is a soup made from chicken simmered in water, usually with various other ingredients. The classic chicken soup consists of a clear broth often with pieces of chicken or vegetables; common additions are pasta, dumplings or grains such as rice and barley. My kids like this kind of chicken soup with long hair noodles. This is far and away my favorite soup now. It’s not heavy. So please enjoy 😉 
One different kind of version with sausage rose bun. Made this soup with a potatoes and red pepper 😉
