| Mexican Chicken Soup100g cooked chicken, shredded into bite-sized pieces 3-4 cloves minced garlic 1 t cumin 1/2 t onion powder 1/2 t chili powder 1/2 t cayenne (use less if you don't want it as spicy) diced tomato 2-3 c homemade chicken broth 1/4 c fresh chopped cilantro (optional)
- Preheat pot over medium-high heat.
- Add garlic, and cook for 3-5 minutes. (Heat until you see little bubbles around the garlic.)
- Use a bit of your broth to keep garlic from sticking to the pot, if necessary.
- Add tomatoes, chicken broth, and onion powder, cumin, chili powder, cayenne.
- Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer, and add chicken.
- Simmer for 20 minutes.
- Stir in cilantro, and simmer for 5 minutes more.
TIP: For easy chopping of cilantro and other herbs, use kitchen shears. When using a knife sometimes the leaves of the herbs are difficult to chop. The kitchen shears make this a simple task. | |
