Ingredients

  • 2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 1.5 cups cilantro (packed)
  • 1 medium yukon gold potato
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 whole jalapeño
  • 1 whole lime (juiced)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel and dice the potato into 1/4-inch cubes. Mince the jalapeño, removing seeds for less heat if you prefer.

  2. 2

    Pour broth into a pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Add diced potato and minced jalapeño.

  3. 3

    Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potato is tender, about 6 minutes. Stir occasionally.

  4. 4

    Roughly chop cilantro and add to the pot along with shredded chicken. Stir until cilantro wilts, ~60 seconds.

  5. 5

    Squeeze lime juice over the soup. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

  6. 6

    Serve hot in bowls with crackers on the side for scooping.
