- Strain the broth, return to the pot, and bring to a boil. Add in pasta and minced mint. Season to taste with salt and white pepper. Heat till the pasta is cooked al dente (hard, literally "to the teeth").
- Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice and chicken julienne. Ladle into soup plates and top with lemon slice and mint leaf.
- Comments: A clear, light Portuguese canja - excellent as a palate reconditioner; serve warm as a first course to 4 to 6 people.
