Ingredients:
6 cups chicken stock

1 white onion, chopped
1 tsp. salt

2 Tbs. butter
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbs. cilantro

Directions:
1: In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine the chicken stock, artichoke hearts, onion and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook 30 minutes.
