Shred the chicken breasts and put half aside.
Place the other half of the chicken in the broth mixture, season to taste and pour it all into a blender.

Blend until smooth and creamy and then return to saucepan.

Add the reserved shredded chicken and heat through. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil, a scatter of thyme and the optional crispy prosciutto.
