Lemon Chicken Tortellini Soup

It snowed at our house today...so I baked pretzels and made this soup. This soup is
so good and soooo easy.

2 T. olive oil
1/2 pound chicken thighs or breasts.
32 oz. chicken broth
9 oz. bag tortellini pasta
2 c. spinach
1 c. peas (I used frozen)
2 T. chopped onion or 4 green onions, chopped
zested peel and juice of 1 lemon
1/2 t. thyme

Put oil in a large pot. Cut up chicken in bite size pieces and saute chicken and onion in oil for about 8 minutes. Pour in broth and peas and bring to a simmer. Add tortellini and cook according to package. Add lemon juice, zested peel, thyme and mix well. Serve.
