I used chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts in this recipe. The soup was still very flavorful.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The soup was still delicious!

This soup was easy to make and so delicious! I used leftover chicken from a rotisserie chicken, which made it even easier. I will definitely be making this again.

This Portuguese chicken soup was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and complex, and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender. I especially loved the addition of the chorizo, which gave the soup a nice smoky flavor.
