Unlike most chicken soup recipes I am a big fan of skinless chicken breasts and use them to make soup as well. The fact that they are leaner, makes the soup less fattier for those of you who are watching your weight but don’t want to compromise on the full flavour of a traditional Cream of Chicken Soup.

Best of all it’s also gluten and dairy free!
