Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts
240g
1 tsp coriander leaves
1g
1 pinch red pepper (spice)
1.80g
1/2 tsp lime juice
2.50g
1/2 avocado
100g

60g
1 potato
210g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Peel and dice the carrot and potato into small, bite-sized pieces.

- Chop the coriander leaves.
2. Cook the Chicken:
- In a large pot, add the chicken breasts and 6 cups of chicken broth (or water).
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer.
- Let the chicken cook for about 15-20 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove chicken breasts and let them cool slightly. Shred the chicken using two forks.
3. Cook the Vegetables:

- Allow the vegetables to simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until they are tender.
4. Combine Ingredients:
- Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
- Add the pinch of red pepper and salt and pepper to taste.
- Simmer for another 5 minutes to let all flavors meld together.
5. Finishing Touches:
- Stir in the lime juice and half of the chopped coriander leaves.
- Gently add the diced avocado just before serving, to avoid it getting too mushy.
6. Serve:
- Ladle the soup into bowls.
- Sprinkle with the remaining coriander leaves on top as a garnish.

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.

With these simple steps and handy tips, you can create a delicious and heartwarming chicken soup with avocado, carrot, and potato. This recipe is not only easy to make but also packed with nutrients, making it an ideal choice for a comforting meal any day of the week. Enjoy your homemade chicken soup!
