I made this soup night before last and it was super yummy. I added corn for extra texture. This made 6 servings for us easily and it's great left overs.
Ingredients:
3 or 4 limes
2 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves, each about
10 oz.
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more, to taste
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper, plus more, to taste
1 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
1 large white onion, chopped
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeño chili, seeded and minced
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 cups water
1 1/2 tsp. Mexican oregano
1 Haas avocado, pitted, peeled and diced
2 oz. queso fresco or mild feta cheese, crumbled
Directions:
Cut 1 lime into 4 to 6 wedges; set aside for serving. Juice as many of the remaining limes as needed to measure 1/4 cup.
Season the chicken breasts with the 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. In a large saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the chicken, skin side down, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate. Add the onion to the pan and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and chili and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the broth, water, lime juice and oregano, then return the chicken to the pan.
Increase the heat to high and bring the liquid to a boil, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover partially and simmer until the chicken shows no sign of pink when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife near the bone, about 40 minutes.
Transfer the chicken to a carving board and let cool slightly. Meanwhile, keep the soup at a simmer. Remove and discard the skin and bones, and shred the chicken into bite-size pieces. Stir the chicken into the soup. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper.
Put the avocado, cheese and lime wedges in separate small bowls. Ladle the soup into warmed bowls and serve immediately. Pass the avocado, cheese and lime wedges alongside. Serves 4 to 6.

I boiled the chicken so I didn't use the olive oil and I didn't add the avacado to the recipe calculator.

Ground peper to taste
Melt down coconut oil in pan and saute talapia filet in it. Sprinkle with seasoning. Really good and not at all fishy.0 -

Tonight's dinner Healthier General Tso
chicken breast, fresh broccoli, and chopped onions sauteed in a little olive oil. Then you simmer it with Iron Chef General Tso sauce. The sauce is a little high on carbs but I mix it with a little chicken broth. It has no preservatives and is labeled all natural. Not completely clean but my husband and kids love it so I make it atleast once a month. Serve it over brown rice.0 -
That sounds awesome. Where did you find the sauce at???0
-
I got the sauce at my local grocery store. I bought it from Acme but I think I may have seen it in Shoprite.0

PS It is in the marinade section near the A-1 and bbq sauces.0

Ok thanks will check that out. 0
