NOTES:
--> This recipe takes around 5minutes to make and is perfect for the colder weather.
--> You can add some grainy toast on the side for extra fiber.
--> Adding in some beans could also boost fiber and nutritional content.
--> Use your leftover chicken for this recipe!
--> There are different bone broth pastes you can get with herbs & spices. Experiment with this recipe by adding more of what you like! I added a bit more turmeric to mine!
--> If you wanted to make this lower calorie or are being conservative with protein consumption across the day, you could reduce the amount of chicken. I used 2x large chicken breasts (600g raw). Using 400g would yield 35g protein per serve and take the calories to 400 per serve.
