This was a recipe I found recently on Epicurious and I liked it a lot. The original called for more chicken stock (4-5 cups) but I like my soup a little thicker and I didn’t want to dilute the flavor too much. It also called for 1/2 cup of cream, which I skipped, as the soup was plenty creamy without it.

Plus, a little plain yogurt on top is just as good! Well, okay — but it’s much healthier.
