👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Heat the oil in a large pot and fry the onion and garlic in it 3 minutes.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveLarge pot
  2. 2
    Add the chicken, stock, tomatoes, paprika, cumin, salt and black pepper and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer at a gentle bubble uncovered 25 minutes.
    ⚙ SimmeringStove
    💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
  3. 3
    Remove the chicken from the pot, shred it with a fork and return it to the pot.
  4. 4
    Add the chopped cilantro to the pot.
  5. 5
    Ladle the hot soup into bowls, with the vegetables and the meat.
  6. 6
    Arrange the tortilla strips and avocado on top of each bowl.
