Paula Deen's Italian Chicken Vegetable Soup

[Jerryanne]

Just saw this on her show....and boy does it look good AND easy! I know some of you are thinking SOUP???? when it's so hot where you're at...but sorry y'all, I couldn't resist! (I wrote it down as she was doing it-so bear with me.) Save it for later when the weather gets cooler-she calls it a one pot wonder and suggests serving it with the Parmesan Sticks posted on this forum a few days ago...

PAULA DEEN'S ITALIAN VEGETABLE SOUP

2 Tbsp. olive oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cubed
Cook chicken in olive oil until lightly browned.
Add:
2-3 carrots, sliced thin
1 onion, chopped fine
1 medium zucchini, cut in half lengthwise, then sliced into half-moon slices
2 (14 1/2 oz. each) cans diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano, undrained
3 1/2 c. chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste

Cook all together until vegetables are done. Serve sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese.
