Preparation
Step 1
1. In a large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil. Add the onions and cook for 2 minutes. Once the onions have softened, add the jalapeños and cook for another minute.
2. Add the chicken broth, tomatoes and black beans into the pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat to simmer and add your chicken breasts. Cook the chicken for 20-25 minutes.
3. Once chicken is cooked, remove from pot. When cool enough to handle, shred it and set it aside. Add lime juice and fresh cilantro to the pot.
4. In a serving bowl, add a mound of shredded chicken. Ladle soup over chicken and top with a lime wedge, grilled tortilla strips, avocado slices and cheese.
