Got to use some of my pre-made chicken broth for this recipe, & of course that added to the great taste! And, since there was garlic & lemon juice included, I also substituted lemon pepper for the S&P! My other half, who is still in the clutches of a sore throat, loved it, as did I! Thanks for a great keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in the current Pick A Chef]
