Notes

For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth. If you prefer a thicker soup, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and add it to the soup before the resting period. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste, and feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
