Lemony Chicken and Okra Soup Recipe: A West African Delight

Features:
    Cuisine:

    A great, unique recipe! I'm always asked for the recipe when I've brought this to potlucks.
    My variations include adding artichokes (what used one time when I didn't have any okra), and making it as a rice dish (basically, just cutting back the liquid and cooking the ingredients in with the steaming rice).

    West African Lemony Chicken-Okra Soup, , A great, unique recipe! I’m always asked for the recipe when I’ve brought this to potlucks
    My variations include adding artichokes (what used one time when I didn’t have any okra), and making it as a rice dish (basically, just cutting back the liquid and cooking the ingredients in with the steaming rice) , Very much enjoyed this soup!! I was just using up leftovers in my fridge so I ‘salvaged’ some food that might have been tossed out I didnt have any tumeric, so substituted ground mustard also didnt add the tomato paste because my okra was canned and had tomatoes in them This recipe was on the spicy side even for heat lovers like myself Will definately be making this again!
