If you are making this recipe - adjust the amount of water that you use to cover the chicken. I used a very large pot and the result was a very watery tasting broth. I used 2 cans of cream of chicken soup and that didn't even help very much. Good recipe - just be careful regarding how much water you use in the beginning.

Very awesome recipe, I have plenty of friends who have enjoyed this one.. I usually buy a bigger chicken so I tend to make a lot of this, and never any extra to spare. Only once did I get my broth too watery, all I did was boil the water itself a little bit longer, before adding the veggies.. Came out very good!
