I was skeptical but this soup is awesome. It's like a big bowl of hot, spicy pickled onions and I like that. I wasn't sure about the chicken parts; sounded like legs and wings, etc., with bones, so I deboned it and cut in bite-sized pieces before cooking. I am thrilled to have this for lunch for the next few days!
