Feel free to the remaining liquid, more if necessary, until the soup is the consistency desired.
7
I added two additional cups of liquid after the soup was done cooking so it was too thick. In an effort to reduce sodium I purchase the lowest sodium chicken broth and use about two cups of water. If the soup seems to need additional flavor or salt I add chicken bouillon to taste.
