Notes
*If you have opted for rotisserie or leftover chicken, simply shred or cube it and add it in with everything else in step 4!
*You can skip cooking the pasta separately and add it to the pot in step 4. I personally do not like that much starch in my soup but it is very common (and easier) to add it right in!
*Soup can be frozen or stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days
