PORTUGUESE CHICKEN SOUP RECIPE (CANJA)
Steps:
- Add the chicken, onion, water, and salt, into a large pot. Cook on medium-high for about 50 minutes.
- Pour the rice into the chicken broth and stir. Cook for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender. If you notice the chicken soup is too thick, add another cup or two of water, stir, and cook just until hot. I added 1 extra cup of water.
- Serve with a squeeze of lemon.
- Enjoy!

CANJA (CAPE VERDE ISLANDS) RICH CHICKEN & RICE SOUP
This very thick, rich soup is made to celebrate special occasions, such as New Year's eve and special family events. This recipe was adapted from the Smithsonian Institution's, 1995 Festival of American Folklife Cookbook. Recipes for the book were contributed by American Cape Verdeans who are active in preserving their cultural heritage. The Cape Verde Islands are located about 300 miles west of Senegal. Many Cape Verdeans migrated to the Atlantic coast of the U.S., many to Rhode island.
