Directions:
- Rince the chicken pieces and remove the skin.
- Place chicken in a large sauce pan.
- Add the borth and 2 cups of water.
- Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer gently until the chicken is cooked through (about 35 min.) Skim any foam that rises to the surface.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate; let cool.
- Shred the meat; discard the bones.
- Meanwhile, strain the broth and return it to the saucepan. Bring to a boil.
- Add the carrots, Swiss chard, tortellini, salt and pepper and simmer according to the tortellini's package directions.
- When the tortellini are done, add the chicken and heat for 3 minutes.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan.
- * for a lower fat/calorie recipe I subsitute whole grain brown rice for the tortellini.
