Ingredients
- 3-4 chicken breast
- 12 oz chicken stock
- 2 bay leaf
- 1 diced tomatoes your heat preference, Ro-tel brand with green chiles, canned
- 6 oz diced green chiles mild, medium, or hot up to you

- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt Celtic variety
- ½ teaspoon black pepper fresh cracked

Instructions
- In a large pot, add stock, chicken breasts, herbs, spices, oil, and seasonings, with ro-tel and green chiles.
- Bring to a boil.
- Add lid to pot, and reduce to a simmer.
