Introduction
Also known as Puerto Rican Chicken and Rice soup.I modified this from the Joy of cooking. My Hubby (who's from PR) absolutely LOVED this when I made it and has asked me to make it again and again...which is a big deal because he's not a soup person. Also known as Puerto Rican Chicken and Rice soup.
