Serve with all your favorite toppings.
Notes
I use full salt chicken broth so I do not add any additional salt. If you use low-sodium chicken broth you may need to add salt. Just taste the soup when it's done simmering and add salt if needed/wanted. The seasonings are very customizable. Add more or less of any seasoning, add some cayenne pepper for some heat, or use fresh garlic. There really is no wrong way to add the seasonings. Just add what you like!
