Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing the boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of your crockpot. Season generously with salt and pepper before adding in the chicken broth, sliced green onions, diced Roma tomatoes, minced garlic, chopped jalapeños, and cumin. Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 5-7 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked through.
  2. Once the cooking time is up, carefully remove the chicken from the crockpot using tongs. It should be easy to shred; using two forks, pull it apart into bite-sized pieces. Return the shredded chicken back to the bubbling broth in the crockpot, ensuring it mixes well with the flavors to enhance your Chicken Avocado Lime Soup.
  3. To brighten the soup, stir in freshly squeezed lime juice and finely chopped cilantro just before serving. This addition not only adds a zesty kick but also enhances the vibrant flavors of your Chicken Avocado Lime Soup. Allow it to sit for a couple of minutes to let the flavors meld beautifully.
  4. Ladle the comforting Chicken Avocado Lime Soup into bowls, and top each serving with diced avocado and crispy tortilla strips for an added crunch. Consider adding more cilantro for garnish to give it a fresh, delightful finish.
