Spicy Chicken Soup




It's a cold and rainy day outside and I'm wondering what I could prepare to spice up my day indoors. I was thinking maybe some hot and steamy soup for my grumbling tummy, or some spicy flavorful chicken for my eager tongue.

Hey, why not both? Why not even combine both?
How about some Spicy Chicken Soup to heat up my cold day and tuck me in cozy with a blanket 'round my shoulders?

It might be a ton of ingredients, but I'm pretty sure it'll be worth the try!
