Amanda's chicken and corn soup

I made the best chicken corn soup last night. It took about 10 minutes to make. No-one tell me what they put in those store-bought roast chooks OK? Ingredients:1 can corn kernels 400g1 can creamed corn 400g 2 cups vegie stock half roast chook: give wing, drumstick and skin to kids, coarsely chop/shred the rest.1 egg, beaten Method: Mix cans of corn and stock in a pan, bring to boil. Add chicken, bring to boil. Stir the pot so the soup is going round in a whirlpool; slowly add the egg in a thin stream. When it's all added, turn off the heat. My kids thought it was awesome- better than the chinese restaurant one!
