    List of Ingredients




    1 3 1/2- to 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
    6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
    2 carrots, cut into thin rounds
    1/2 bunch Swiss chard, cut crosswise into 1-inch strips
    1 8- to 9-ounce package tortellini, preferably vegetable
    3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated Parmesan

    Recipe



    Remove the skin from the chicken and place the pieces in a large
    saucepan. Add the broth and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil.
    Reduce heat and simmer gently until the chicken is cooked
    through, about 35 minutes. Skim any foam that rises to the
    surface. Transfer the chicken to a plate; let cool. Shred the
    meat; discard the bones.

    Meanwhile, strain the broth and return it to the saucepan. Bring
    to a boil. Add the carrots, Swiss chard, tortellini, salt, and
    pepper. Simmer according to the tortellini's package directions.
    When the tortellini is done, add the chicken and heat for 3
    minutes. Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with the
    Parmesan.
