This was good, although I think I'll add some sherry or white wine next time...I added a little more chicken and used chicken stock instead of broth. I though it was a little heavy on basil, but I used poultry seasoning when cooking the chicken, and that has basil in it as well. Very creamy...definitely a fall/winter soup. I will make this again!

As ususal Kitten, another winner! I made this soup about two weeks ago, haven't had the chance to rate it until now, I wouldn't forget though because this soup was just wonderful! I made it exactly as stated and wouldn't change a thing, comfort food at it's best! Thanks Kitten for another keeper, I'll make this again!
