Cook for an additional minute and then add the water with chicken bouillon or chicken broth whichever one you’re using. 
  2. Bring to a simmer, taste and add more chicken bouillon if needed. Add in your chopped leftover turkey or chicken. **If you are using chicken breasts, add in the raw chicken breasts into the broth mixture and let it cook for about 20-30 minutes.chop it up and then add it back in**
