Chicken Fire Soup

"Very spicy and strong, this is a real 'Old Wives' type of cold/flu remedy. The more spicy and strong you make it the better it seems to work on head congestion and that icky feeling, but only make it as strong as the recipient can handle."

  1. My dh can eat hotter than anyone, but not this. I did use habaneros..but have always heard, scoth bonnet are even hotter.perhaps with one pepper it would be ok. update..At the time I wrote this, the recipe called for 4 whole peppers. Kookiemomster thanked me and changed it to 4 tsp. Have never heard these peppers were the same, if so, then why the different names?
     
  2. Scotch Bonnet peppers and habaneros are the same pepper. I added some veggies to this and loved it! Thanks for posting.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in the northeastern US I am a stay at home mom. My kids are 11, 9, 3.5, and 1.5 My hubby is back from his 3 month internship in MA. We all went to see Boston, for some reason the people of MA don't feel the need to post rout markers on their highways. I am accustomed to knowing every 10th of a mile what highway I am on and where on it I am. Thank goodness for audio books, but if I ever have to listen to Charlie and the Chocolate factory again I may do Eric Idle some form of spam induced harm. (Just kidding don't turn me in to the men in white coats yet.) I used to say that I have too many favorite cook books to list, but now I will have to say that Recipezaar is my favorite cookbook. We have implemented a rule at the book store, we cannot buy another cook book until we make at least one thing from the last one we bought. I would love to move somewhere truly interesting, or at least to travel. Don't get me started on my pet peeves. I have removed them because they were too grouchy, I really am a happy person so lets just say I think people need to think more, have more self respect, more respect and responsibility to others and to dress and behave like civilized people should. Also if you live in a big city, please let people merge on the highway.
