I love soup. All kinds of soup. Chicken soup is one of my favorites. Soups are great as appetizers or sides but what I love doing the most is serving it with a salad and some gourmet bread and turning it into a main course. Light and healthy!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil.
  • 2 chicken breasts.
