Hearty Chicken Soup



Caught a cold during the rainy season? Have some hearty chicken soup that's power packed with nutrients and guarantee to warm up your body.

Ingredients

* 1/2 chicken or 3-4 slices of chicken breasts
* 4 carrots, diced
* 2 potatoes, diced
* 2 corns, cut into smaller portion
* 4 stalks celery, diced
* 4 big tomatoes, quartered
* 1 large onion, quartered
* water to cover
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules (optional)

Directions


1. Put the chicken, carrots, celery, potatoes, tomatoes, corn and onion in a large soup pot and cover with cold water. Heat and simmer, uncovered, until the chicken meat falls off of the bones (skim off foam every so often).
2. Take everything out of the pot. Strain the broth. Pick the meat off of the bones. Season the broth with salt, pepper and chicken bouillon to taste, if desired. Return the chicken, carrots, celery, potatoes, tomatoes, corn and onion to the pot, stir together, and serve.
