Chicken noodle soup is so synonymous with winter and generally leaves us all feeling better. If you have a friend feeling sick, chicken soup will sort them out.
What you need
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup sliced celery
1 cup sliced carrots
1 medium onion finely chopped
1 liter chicken stock
500g cooked shredded chicken
1/2 cup pasta
Salt and pepper
The process
Melt the butter in a large pot, add the carrots, celery, onion, cook over a medium heat until the celery is soft and tender.
Add the chicken stock, bring to the boil and then reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 5 minutes.
Cook the pasta in a separate pot of salted water.
Poach the chicken in seasoned water until done through, then remove, allow to cool until you are able to handle it and then shred it by hand.
Add the chicken and the cooked pasta to the stock and turn the heat up to medium.
Serve immediately with crisp French loaf.

i have been sick for day now with the flu and have taken about every tablet already and up until now othing has worked for me what do i do
Hi Lizel, diet is very important when dealing with flu or any other illness for that matter. A good vegetable soup with some protein like chicken will do you very nicely and remember to get plenty of sleep. Hope you feel better soon.
