How to cook:

1. Make chicken broth by puting chicken and 1 teaspoon salt in 4 cups of water. Bring to boil then to cook the chicken. When cooked, shred chicken and reserve broth for later.

and a dash of crushed pepper. Saute till chicken, is almost browned. Add the carrots and saute some more.

3. Add 1/4 cup broth and let it simmer. Add the uncooked macaroni and mix well.
Add the 3-4 cups broth that have been kept hot to the pot. (I usually heat the broth while I am sauteeing the ingredients for the sopas.).
4. Cook until macaroni is almost done, around eight minutes or. Add the shredded cabbage and bring to a boil. At this point you may add more broth depending on your preference for a thick or thin sopas). When cabbage is cooked, add salt and pepper to taste.

5. Remove from fire then add 1/2 cup of milk. Mix everything then it is ready to serve.
