Cup Tomato - chopped  
Ounce Chicken meat - lean, cooked Or raw  
/4 Teaspoon Thyme  
/4 Teaspoon Marjoram  
Bay leaves  
Black pepper - freshly  
Ground, to taste  
Cook the onion, celery, and garlic over high heat for 2 minutes, stirring  
constantly until they begin to colour.  
Add all remaining ingredients  
Cover the pot and simmer gently for 30 minutes.  
To Serve: Ladle into warm soup bowls and serve piping hot.  
NOTES: This is a very simple and basic preparation, and an excellent way to  
create a thrifty meal or first course from small amounts of leftover  
poultry. It can, of course, be made from scratch by simply using uncooked  
poultry meat.  
A tablespoon of blond "roux" mixed with some of the stock and stirred into  
the soup a few minutes before the simmering is complete adds a silky texture  
to the dish.
