Simmer the soup for 1.5 to 2 hours, partially covered, to allow the flavors to develop fully.
Strain and Season
Remove the chicken legs and vegetables from the pot. If desired, strain the broth for a smoother texture.
Shred the chicken meat, discarding the bones and skin, and return the meat to the pot.
Optional Enhancements
If you want to add diced onion for depth, sauté it in a small pan and stir it into the soup.
Serve
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm with crusty bread or a side of crackers.
