Warm, and filling chicken soup with all the flavors we love, I've written the recipe as posted, but made it simpler by just browning the chicken breast whole, putting everything in the crockpot, and cooking on low for about 6 hours, then shredding the chicken just before serving - EASY peasy and delicious, from the Weight Watchers site and only 3 Smart Points perserving

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The soup was still very flavorful.

Absolutely delicious soup! I added a can of black beans and a cup of corn to make it a little heartier. My family loved it!
