1 can(s) 14.5 oz. can chicken broth
1 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp garlic, minced (or more to your liking)
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chicken broth: This will also help to give the soup a rich flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to add some spices: A little bit of cumin, chili powder, or paprika can really add some depth of flavor to the soup.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh herbs: This will add some richness and creaminess to the soup.
