Delicious Chicken and Rice Soup image

I first tasted this soup at a friends house and requested the recipe. It normally makes a huge batch, but I down-sized the recipe for 2-4 people. It is such a warm, filling, delicious soup and is easy to put together! *Note: Use Uncle Ben's original long grain wild rice & the seasoning packet that comes with it. It wouldn't let me use that in the ingredients!
