4 chicken breasts or comparable amount of chicken fillets cut into bite size pieces.
1 large onion
1 bunch green onions, divide
6 to 8 garlic cloves, depending on your love of garlic
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
1 (29 oz) can of diced tomatoes (see note 1)
2 tbsps ground cumin
1 tblsp chili powder
6 cups of chicken broth (see note 2)
Juice of a lime
Notes:
I also use Rotel canned tomatoes with fresh tomatoes and cut back on the chili powder.
You can add canned southwestern corn and/or canned black beans and cut back on the chicken broth. I usually add the black beans.
Brown the chicken in olive oil. Before it is totally done add in onions, garlic, some of the green onions and cilantro. Cook until the onions and garlic are just about done. Add all of the tomatoes, broth and seasonings. Simmer for at least 30 - 45 minutes. The longer it cooks the spicier it becomes.
When ready to serve, any of the following make a nice addition:
grated cheese
tortilla chips
guacamole or just slice avocados
sour cream
remaining green onions
additional fresh cilantro
