Peppered hen soup, a spicy Nigerian dish, is a flavorful stew made with hen (mature chicken) cooked in a rich, fiery broth. It features a blend of hot peppers (like Scotch bonnet), tomatoes, onions, and spices such as ginger, garlic, and curry. Often garnished with local herbs like scent leaf or uziza, it delivers a bold, zesty taste. Typically served with swallow foods like pounded yam, eba, or fufu, it’s a comforting, fiery favorite in Nigerian cuisine.
