100g cooked chicken
shredded into bite-sized pieces
3-4 cloves minced garlic
1 t cumin
1/2 t onion powder
1/2 t chili powder
1/2 t cayenne (use less if you don't want it as spicy)
diced tomato
2-3 c homemade chicken broth
1/4 c fresh chopped cilantro (optional)
What To Do
1. Preheat pot over medium-high heat.
2. Add garlic, and cook for 3-5 minutes. (Heat until you see little bubbles around the garlic.)
3. Use a bit of your broth to keep garlic from sticking to the pot, if necessary.
4. Add tomatoes, chicken broth, and onion powder, cumin, chili powder, cayenne.
5. Bring to a boil.
6. Reduce heat to a simmer, and add chicken.
7. Simmer for 20 minutes.
8. Stir in cilantro, and simmer for 5 minutes more.
NOTE: For easy chopping of cilantro and other herbs, use kitchen shears. When using a knife sometimes the leaves of the herbs are difficult to chop. The kitchen shears make this a simple task.
