I found this on-line.
- chicken cut into cubes, about 1/2 inch cubes
- chicken broth, 6 cups or so
- 1/2 cup of chopped onion
- 1/4 cup of chopped leek (remove if you want)
- 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon saffron threads, slightly crushed (these can be expensive...use only if you wish to. It's a "splurge" on our list, so I may not even use them.)
- vegetable ravioli or chicken tortellini (pre-prepared or your own. I make my own.)
- 1/2 cup baby spinach, fresh (wash well, please please please wash well!), chopped up into pieces
Cook the chicken for a few minutes in the saucepan, add broth, ginger, onion, leek, and saffron. Let them come to a boil. Add the tortellini or ravioli, sirring often. Simmer for about ten minutes, check for noodles to be done. Remove from heat and put in bowls. Add the spinach and stir gently.
