Chicken Souse

Bahamian chicken souse is a poultry dish that is eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is made with chicken pieces, onions, potatoes, goat peppers, lime juice, allspice, and butter. The chicken is boiled with other ingredients, and the dish is ready once the potatoes become tender.


Chicken souse has a reputation of being a great hangover cure, and it is traditionally served with rice, johnny cakes, or hot grits on the side.
