3 stars, good, but have others I like better with less chopping! Don't know where original reviews went from when I printed this off, but agree with them to double oregano & parsley. I'd also triple the broth, and add a teaspoon of cornstarch to it to thicken. I had one huge lemon & didn't have nearly 1 tablespoon of peel, so guess you'd need 2-4 lemons depending on size. Since I was short, I sprinkled chicken w/lemon pepper & that probably made up part of the deficit.

I didnt have chicken broth so I boiled some water and added a ramen chicken pack in the water. (No noodles). No lemon and it was pretty good.
