Chicken, Sage and Ham Soup

This soup has a wonderful blend of flavours.  Pair it with a salad for a healthy and hearty dinner.

1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp chopped shallot
2 (14 1/2 oz) cans reduced sodium chicken broth, plus 1 cup water
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
4 oz ham, chopped
1/2 tsp dried sage leaves
1 lemon
1/2 tsp salt (I omitted this as the ham has enough salt for me)
1/2 tsp pepper

• Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat.  Add shallot; cook 1 minute, until softened.  Add broth, water, chicken, ham and sage.  Bring o a boil.  Reduce heat to low.  Cook 5 minutes, until chicken is almost cooked through.
• Add 1 tsp grated lemon rind, 2 tsp lemon juice, salt and pepper.  Cook 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Enjoy
