What is it about chicken soup that seems to help us when we are feeling not so well?  It simply soothes and comforts.  This soup is made with homemade vegetable stock and combined with a simple frying of the diced thigh fillets finished with a sprinkle of parsley.  Of course, if you are short on time substitute homemade stock with a good quality packaged one.

Ingredients
