This is fresh tasting, light and delightful.
I didn't use Brussels sprouts which really I cannot imagine in this dish. Instead, a small zucchini. I added 1 1/2 c. Frozen cooked winter squash from my freezer which gave it body. I didn't blend it. Couldn't see why. Lovely and highly recommended.
A bit bland. We liked the variety of veg in it. I will use one-fourth as much chicken and much more veg in it if I make it again.

This didn't work for me.... no salt, chicken pieces bland and cooked it too long. Didn't believe it could be cooked in 30 minutes of simmering. Won't try again.
Postscript.
Leftovers made the basis for delicious chicken soups for the next four days -- just as flu season arrived. Thanks.
