Chicken and Baby Corn Soup image

This is a clear, light soup that has elements of Spanish flavor, mixed with a touch of Asia. It is wonderful for a starter or perfect for a light lunch. It is my adaptation of a Paragon Press recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons canola oil
5 scallions, thinly sliced

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have some leftover chicken from roasting a whole chicken, and this soup is the perfect way to use it up.
