Chicken shurpa soup

Chicken shurpa isn't as fatty as the lamb version. I'd been wanting to try shurpa for a long time—I'd heard it's a really delicious soup. I strayed from the traditional lamb recipe (I'll get to that one someday) and made a lighter version with chicken. Once again it confirmed for me that the soups of Central Asian cuisine are wonderfully tasty and fragrant, thanks to the spices.
