Modifications: Substituted 8oz fresh jalapeno for canned chilies

Notes: Let me just say that I'm not a huge fan of soups. Don't get me wrong - I certainly enjoy them but as a meal by themselves I often times find them a bit lacking. This recipe though is certainly an exception to my rule. It tasted great and was very satisfying without being heavy. Now this is not a quick recipe since you have to boil the chicken, but it was great for a wet-weathered, late fall weekend evening. This is great dinner for pulling up in front of the TV when the weather gets nasty outside. Besides the avocado, which was a tasty garnish but could be omitted, all of these items are usually in stock in our kitchen making it a great "rescue" meal in case we get snowed in someday!

Sara’s Comments: This was a great soup for a cold rainy day. It was warm and spicy, and a little monterey jack cheese on top made it fun too. Loved the jalapenos and fresh squeezed lime juice with some avocado for garnish.
