Chicken soup when under the weather

A quick dish when you're feeling in need of something nourishing.
I could only find boneless, skinless chicken thighs today but you can also use bone-in thighs or whole chicken legs which adds more flavour. It just takes longer to cook.
I also added little tortellini to the broth but you could leave these out altogether if you don't have any.
