Personal Notes:
Lots of options here re: your choice of chicken - feel free to use chicken breasts or rotisserie chicken for ease. Same with noodles or pasta. I love the tiny thin egg noodles; everyone else in my house likes the thick ones. You can also sub rice (of the long grain or wild version) or even barley. And another hack -- I always add lemon juice to soup (any soup). Just a tablespoon at the end. You never taste the lemon but it brigthens all the flavors.
