Mix stock with all ingredients except chicken, noodles, and garnishes and bring to boil.  Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. 
Add chicken cook until done 10-12 minutes.
Remove chicken and add noodles cooking three minutes. While noodles are cooking slice the chicken breast on the bias.
Remove from heat, add broth to bowl, add noodles, sliced chicken and any optional garnish.
