Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 ½ (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ onion
1 stalk celery
1 sprig fresh parsley
2 quarts cold water
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
½ onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
4 tomatoes, diced
1 cup canned chickpeas, drained
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Pour mixture into a blender; add 1 cup stock. Cover and hold lid down with a potholder; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend.
  • Pour tomato mixture into the saucepan of stock; add chickpeas and carrots. Let simmer until carrots are nearly softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the shredded chicken and chipotle peppers. Let simmer until flavors blend and carrots are tender, about 10 minutes more. Season with salt and serve with avocados, lime quarters, and Oaxaca cheese on the side.
