Lemon Grass Chicken
This is a healing soup. A restorative soup and a Prevent soup.
It is very simple.
The chicken and broth are your main goals but you can variate as you like by making a stewish type thing or just a meat and broth soup. The vegetables nutrients are in the broth more than themselves so there really is no need for them unless you require fiber.
Experiment.
