White chicken soup

Not to brag but my mom who's sick with the flu ate 3 bowls in one go! Ingredient list is long but mostly spices and herbs. Use bone in chicken pieces as it's more nutritious and cheaper. I use thighs as it stays soft and juicy, doesn't dry out. Dried or fresh herbs can be used, I used a combination.
