Just don't do what my father in law did.
Great chicken soup recipe until I found an entire chicken leg bone on my spoon.
I used to work with chickens on a farm, I damn near threw up.
He says the bones add flavor.
I threw a left, right and a left hook. We don't talk now.

It sounds horrible just thinking about it, all I think about is drinking bone marrow!
Ugh!

Are you sure about that?
I thought he was from a warm state? I could be wrong though.
Speaking of chicken soup, ever had Vietnamese chicken soup (pho)? Great stuff (if you're a meat eater, which I'm not).

Originally posted by wormwoodI'm looking for a good vegetarian recipe.
I've been thinking of trying make it, but haven't got around to yet. haven't eaten it before.
To make the real stuff, I'd just heat up some chicken broth, season it with a little Chinese 5-spice, throw in some vermicelli noodles, some pieces of rotisserie chicken, scallions, a couple mint leaves, twist of lime and bean sprouts...maybe a slice of jalapeno.
The beef version is tasty too, where they give you thin slices of raw beef (instead of cooked rotisserie chicken) and you cook them in the broth like fondue.

I'd recommend a newly discovered one:
Fry chopped garlic, onion and gingseng, then add some boiled and
shredded chicken breast. After a while add tomato juice, coconut milk,
and lemon grass. Salt and pepper to taste.
Enjoy! 🙂
P.S. Forgot to mention chili would be nice, too. Particularly a mild one
chopped and fried together with the garlic, onion and ginger.
