Turn chicken until all surfaces are sealed.Add water, salt, marjoram, garlic, and bouillon to pot.Place all chopped vegetables in pot, stir well and cover.Once soup reaches boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.Remove lid from soup and allow soup to continue simmering to reduce liquids. Stir and simmer for about another 30 minutes (stirring should rub off some the outermost portion of the potatoes - the starch will additionally thicken the soup).Taste test for salt (bouillons vary widely) and seasonings (up to an addition 1/2 tbsp of marjoram may be required).Makes about 6 - 2 cup servings.Note: we like this with a hearty bread (have rosemary in mind for today).Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RICHARDHARRISON.
