Instructions
- Bring chicken broth, quartered onion, salt and pepper to a boil in a large soup pot. Add chicken breasts then bring back to a boil. Reduce to low and simmer for 20 minutes or until chicken breasts are cooked through.
- Remove chicken from the pot and place on a cutting boar. Cut into large chunks then return to the broth. Add quartered carrots and cook until fork-tender, about 6-7 minutes.
- Divide soup between four bowls then garnish with lime juice, cilantro, avocado, minced onion and jalapeño. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
- While these garnishes are optional, they are the star of the dish so I highly recommend them.
