“I tried this and really loved the rich flavors and simple instructions. I can tell it's going to be a new favorite, and that it is flexible enough to incorporate little tweaks. I've already tried it again, with variations like adding a few veggies that needed ” — a cook, 5.0★
“There was alot of great flavors happening here. We especially appreciated the flavorful broth that is made from this recipe. I must admit, we found it somewhat lacking with just broth and shredded chicken for the soup. We were missing some form of substance” — a cook, 4.0★
