This is a great simple dish that can be made on any budget. This would make a great warm menu for lunch or supper.
This recipe is very reminiscent of pepper soup but doesn’t require special spices. The ginger, scotch bonnet and garlic go a long way to clear out your sinuses when you’ve got a flu.
Ingredients
  • 1 finger ginger
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 large tatashe (bell pepper)
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 hot peppers (scotch bonnet , ata-rodo)
  • 1 whole chicken (cleaned and cut)
  • 2 maggi cubes
  • salt – to taste
