Cuban Chicken Soup with Malanga (Sopa de Pollo)

What is Sopa de Pollo?

Sopa de pollo [pronounced soh-pah deh poh-yoh] translates to chicken soup. Today, I bring you my Cuban mom’s fail-proof recipe so you can also make it from scratch.

This one-pot soup is made with cooked, shredded chicken thighs, one bouillon cube, cubed malanga, chopped veggies, and fideo (fidelini) pasta noodles.
