1 free range chicken breast cubed

A splash of wustishire sauce
1 Cup of whole wheat pasta
Fresh herbs (whatever you really like, oregano %26amp; thyme are nice)
A little salt %26amp; pepper to season
You may need up to 4 cups of water depending on how much liquid cooks out of the soup.
1) Turn the heat to medium/high %26amp; melt the butter %26amp; sautee the chicken, onion %26amp; garlic until the chicken is browned.
2) Add the stock, tomatoes, soup mix, pasta, potato, chopped herbs %26amp; carrot.
