For a vegetarian version, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth. Add a squeeze of lemon juice at the end for extra brightness. Feel free to adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preferred level of spiciness. For a creamier soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the parsley.
