Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts, or just go with a 1 kilo
  • 3-4 carrots, sliced
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 8 cups water
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup peas, fresh or frozen, optional
  • noodles, of your choice, cooked, Fettccine would be a good choice

Instructions
 

  • Boil chicken and veggies in the water for 20 minutes, when the chicken is cooked through, remove from the water, shred and return to the pot. Add cream of chicken soup, basil, and pepper and bring to a boil again before adding noodles and peas (if desire). Simmer for 5-10 minutes, serve.

Notes

Chicken will cost about 67 Baht/kilo for breasts, if you want to add some dark meat as well, the cost will increase slightly. This is about 32 cents per serving. Excellent value.
