1 dash black pepper
1/10g
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1.50g
1 dash salt

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Dice the avocado and set aside.

2. Cook the Chicken:
- In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat.
- Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
3. Sauté the Vegetables:
- In the same pot, add the diced onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
4. Add Tomatoes and Spices:

- Add the ground cumin, a dash of salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to coat the vegetables with the spices.
5. Simmer the Soup:

- Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
6. Add Chicken and Lime:
- Return the cooked chicken to the pot.
- Stir in the juice of one lime and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
7. Final Touches:
- Stir in the diced avocado and sprinkle with chopped coriander leaves.
- Adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.
8. Serve:
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with extra coriander leaves, if desired.
- Serve hot with lime wedges on the side.

Tips:

- To intensify the flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in lime juice, salt, and black pepper for about 30 minutes before cooking.

- Roast the garlic cloves and jalapeno pepper before adding them to the soup to bring out deeper flavors.

- For an extra creamy texture, blend part of the soup before adding the avocado.

- Add freshly chopped coriander leaves just before serving to enhance the aroma and flavor.

- Garnish with extra lime wedges for those who enjoy a tangier taste.
