Ingredients:
Instructions:

- Add the pinch of red pepper and salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, you can sear the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the soup.
- Always taste and adjust seasoning as needed, especially after adding the lime juice.
- Use ripe but firm avocado to maintain texture and prevent it from turning mushy in the soup.
- You can add more vegetables like celery or zucchini if you want to increase the nutritional value of the soup.
- For a smoother texture, consider blending a portion of the soup before adding the avocado.
