This is not Gramma's chicken soup, but it does provide comfort food fairly quickly to someone suffering from a cold. The lemon juice added to the bowl will add just enough tang to make it interesting enough to eat all of the soup.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 small onion, cut in 1/2 inch pieces
1 carrot, washed,but not peeled and cut into penny size rounds
1 clove garlic, crushed and diced
1 boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1/4 inch cubes
1 teaspoon basil
2 (15 ounce) cans chicken stock
2 cups dry pasta (I like flat noodles)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

1
Heat the oil in a medium size pan, melt the butter in the oil and then saute onions until transparent.
2
Add garlic and the chicken.
3
Stir until meat turns white.
4
Add carrots, basil, and chicken stock, and simmer for 30 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
5
Add pasta and simmer for an additional 15 minutes.
6
After the soup has been poured into a bowl, add one tablespoon of lemon juice to each serving.

I halved the recipe and still had more than enough for 2 servings. I used orzo pasta, adding about 1/2 cup for the halved recipe. Although I like lemon juice, one tablespoon was a bit too much for me so I would halve that amount next time (this may have been due to the reduced amount of pasta I used).

A delicious rich broth. I used acini de pepe pasta, and less lemon juice. I'll be making it again soon!

Very good. I added a bit of celery too. Had a really good and differnt taste compared to your usual chicken noodle, kind of like the gourmet version. Great when you are sick too.

I can't imagine why I haven't made this wonderful soup before! It is so easy to make and tasted ever so good. Today was just the right day - snowed all last night and all morning so this soup was comfort food that hit the right spot. I thought I had enough Chicken stock but when I checked the size of the can they were only 10 oz so I added a tin of Vegetable Broth (it worked) and used whole wheat noodles - the lemon is just the right finishing touch - If the soup is your full meal I can see it serving two but we had it for lunch followed with cheeses, crackers & grapes and there would be enough for 4 servings. I restocked the cupboard with chicken stock later this afternoon ready for the next batch. Thank-you Bill for an excellent recipe
