I always find this recipe helpful when I am trying to use leftover chicken. It has a wonderful fresh flavor and good anytime. Ingredients:
2 cups chopped or shredded cooked chicken |
1 cup diced fresh tomato |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 jalapeno, minced |
1/2 small white onion, diced |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
4 cups chicken broth |
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a soup pan on medium high. Add tomatoes, onion, jalapeños and garlic. Cook for 15 minutes or until tomatoes are nice and pulpy.
2. Add chicken broth, cumin, salt and pepper and cook covered on medium low for 10 minutes.
3. Add chicken and cook covered on medium low for an additional 5 minutes and serve.
4. I always garnish this soup with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, some diced avocado and some crunchy tortilla strips.
