2 cups diced carrots ((fresh or frozen))

6 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth ((or chicken broth; 1 quart plus 1 14.5-ounce can))

Upute

Heat a medium pot over medium heat. Add the oil to warm.

Add the carrots and stir to coat. Cover and cook for 4 minutes.

Add the broth and turn the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat back to medium so it's a simmer with regular small bubbles.

Add the pasta and cook for 5-6 minutes or until tender.

Stir in the chicken.

Season to taste with salt and serve with Parmesan, minced parsley, and/or fresh lemon juice if desired.
