To make a quick chicken soup I use the “Lipton Dry Chicken Noodle Soup Mix”. I follow the basic directions for the soup but will add 1 chicken bouillon cube and 1 extra cup of water. Then I will drizzle my “kapanki” mixture into this soup. Of course you can use your own home made chicken broth.
My son quickly learned to make this when he went off to college…he liked it better than Ramen and it was his “go to” soup when he wasn’t feeling well.

This recipe utilizes a “mix”…“Bayou Magic Jambalaya Mix”…can only be found in only a few stores in Louisiana, Arkansas & Texas.
Yes, there is a recipe on the bag of mix, but I have made my own adjustments & additions to suit our family’s tastes.
Many people love the addition of Shrimp or will substitute shrimp for the chicken, you can do all three if you want.
