I make this after buying a store made roasted chicken. I take the breast meat to make chicken salad, boil the rest to make broth. Because it's already been seasoned, this cuts back on exactly measuring salt and pepper to add to the soup. I will take the chicken left over from making the broth and have it available to have for people to add if they want along with croutons,sliced green onion,sour cream or shredded cheese. We are a topping happy family.
