Caribbean Cilantro-Lime Chicken Soup

Monday, December 23, 2013 by Lolli 8 Comments

I made this soup last month just before traveling to L.A. and forgot to post the recipe until now. This soup was so delicious that I can’t recommend it enough. Please note: the pictures shown seem to hide the fact that this is a soup. There is broth under all of that rice and chicken goodness, I promise!
