Another family recipe I have tried to make and mastered is Cuban Chicken Soup. Uncle Oscar Rivera-Rivera has taught me over the years how to make this classic meal. My recipe has been recently featured in the Canadian Online publication Orato. I'm taking each day to try classic recipes from my family and develop my cooking skills. Today I'm concentrating on the Cuban Chicken Soup.
