Directions : Chicken and Lime Soup Recipe

Step-by-Step Instructions

STEP 1.In a pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until golden on both sides, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove from the pot and shred with two forks once cooled.

STEP 1.In the same pot, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant and soft.

STEP 2.Pour in the chicken broth, followed by the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Bring it to a simmer for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

STEP 3.Add the shredded chicken back into the pot along with the diced tomato. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow the tomatoes to break down and release their juices.

STEP 4.Squeeze in the juice of one lime and add a bit of lime zest for extra flavor. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

STEP 5.Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. If you like a bit of spice, toss in some chopped jalapeños or green chilies for a fiery kick.
