Cook's Notes:
This can be modified to meet any cook's needs. It can be cooked on stove top, the microwave, or a slow cooker.
For the slow cooker, I put all ingredients except for the chicken, evaporated milk, and Parmesan cheese in the slow cooker, starting with the chopped onion. Cook for 4 hours on Low. Add shredded chicken and evaporated milk and cook an additional 15 minutes or until re-heated. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan Cheese over surface of soup in each bowl.
Tip
Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
