About Chicken Foot Soup
Xavier Murphy’s Jamaican chicken-foot soup is a traditional Saturday one-pot meal. Chicken feet simmer with pumpkin, cho cho, carrots, turnips and yellow yam, bringing meat and several vegetables into the same broth.
Allspice berries, garlic, thyme and scallion provide the seasoning, alongside salt and a packet of Jamaican chicken noodle soup. Potato, celery and corn are optional additions.
The yam is cooked until tender while retaining its shape, and the finished soup has a medium consistency. Dumplings known as spinners can be added to the pot.
