1 lb cooked and shredded boneless skinless chicken breasts use leftover/pre-cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken. Leave out for vegan or sub with plant-based chopped chicken or shredded jackfruit. We like the options provided by Abbot's Butcher, Upton Naturals and The Jackfruit Company.

3-4 cups low-sodium chicken broth or homemade broth or more depending on thickness desired. Sub with vegetable broth/stock for vegan.

Toppings of Choice
Diced avocado
sliced jalapeno

Instructions
Stovetop Method
1. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the onions, bell peppers and pinch of salt. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until fragrant and slightly tender.
2. Add the garlic, green chilies along with all of the seasonings and spices. Cook for an additional 30 seconds. Stir in the chicken, zucchini, fire-roasted tomatoes and chicken broth (starting with 3 cups and adding more as needed), and stir until well combined.
3. Bring the soup to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium-low to simmer, for about 15-20 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasonings to taste, adding more salt, seasonings or lime juice, to taste.
4. When ready to serve, ladle into a bowl, garnish with more cilantro, and serve with extra lime wedges, jalapeno, diced avocado, a dollop of dairy-free sour cream, tortilla strips, chopped onions or other toppings of choice.
