Ingredients

2 ripe avocados
1 kg chicken breasts, boneless skinless
1500 ml chicken broth
1 small bunch cilantro
5 cloves garlic
1 red bell pepper
2 limes
3 large tomatoes
1 large yellow onion
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup frozen corn

Method

1
Peel and dice the onion. Mince the garlic. Wash and dice the tomatoes. Seed and dice the red bell pepper.
2
Heat a large pot over medium heat with olive oil. Add the diced onion and bell pepper; cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
3
Add the minced garlic and diced tomatoes to the pot; cook for another 2 minutes.
4
Slice the chicken breasts into thin fillets and add them to the pot along with the chicken broth, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
5
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
6
While the chicken cooks, wash and dry the cilantro. Remove the leaves from the stems, discard the stems, and chop the leaves.
7
Halve and pit the avocados. Scoop out the flesh and cut into medium dice.
8
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred or dice it. Return the chicken to the pot.
9
Stir in the frozen corn and half of the chopped cilantro. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the corn is heated through.
10
Remove the pot from heat. Squeeze in the juice of 1 lime and stir in the diced avocado.
11
Serve the soup hot, garnished with the remaining cilantro and lime wedges from the second lime.
