Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in garlic, ginger, lemongrass, thyme and rosemary until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Whisk in chicken stock, bay leaves and 1 cup water; bring to a boil. Add chicken; reduce heat and simmer. Cook, covered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10-12 minutes. Remove chicken and shred, using two forks; set aside. Stir in pasta and cook until tender, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in chicken and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with chives, if desired.
COLD CURE SOUP
This soup started life as quite a different thing. I'd made a traditional Persian chicken, cinnamon and Seville-orange stew and realized that it was the scented broth I loved the most. So I cut to the chase. A supermarket packet of chicken wings, a stick of cinnamon, a carrot, an onion, a knob of ginger and the juice and zest of an orange left to simmer on the stove make a restorative broth that delights, soothes and helps fight off winter blues. I like it sprinkled with chopped cilantro and chilies, but you could make more of a meal of it by adding shredded chicken and noodles. (This recipe originally called for a Seville orange, but we've modified it so it can be made with a combination of orange and lime juice. If you have access to Seville oranges, all the better!)

COLD-BUSTING GINGER CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
A spicy addition to a classic soup. I normally make this with a whole chicken and let it cook for an hour, remove the meat, and return the bones for another hour on their own, chicken breasts are used here for simplicity.

COLD-BLASTING CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
This is the favorite soup at our house whenever anyone has a cold. We invented it over time, adding more spices as we went! The combination of the garlic, onion, ginger, chili pepper and cilantro really seems to give the immune system a boost. (But if you don't like one of these ingredients -- or don't have it on hand -- just leave it out; the soup will still taste good!) I prefer using leftover roast chicken for this recipe, but you can also use uncooked chicken -- just let it simmer in the broth until it cooks. And note: if you don't have lemon pepper, just use plain black pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken for a more flavorful broth. If you're using chicken breasts, add some bones to the pot for extra flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: The chicken should be able to move around freely in the pot. If it's too crowded, the broth will be cloudy and the chicken will not cook evenly.
- Simmer, don't boil: Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Boiling will make the broth cloudy and toughen the chicken.
- Add vegetables at the right time: Add hard vegetables like carrots and celery at the beginning of the cooking process so they have time to soften. Add softer vegetables like spinach and tomatoes near the end so they don't overcook.
- Season to taste: Taste the broth before serving and add more salt, pepper, or other seasonings as needed.
