Chicken Pepper Soup (GLP-1)
A light Indian-style pepper soup made with lean chicken breast simmered in a peppery, ginger-forward broth, thickened with fibre-rich okra and finished with scallion and cilantro. Warming and clear rather than starchy, it is easy to digest and served hot in a bowl as a protein-forward light meal.
