Bring the soup to a simmer, and then cook, covered, until the chicken breast is cooked through and tender.

PRO TIPS

This easy homemade chicken soup is perfect to make with leftover chicken breasts.

How do you add flavor to chicken soup? This Homemade Chicken Soup with Tomatillo and Avocado is already filled with aromatic and playful flavors, but when serving, you can also add sour cream, tortilla chips and more jalapeños for extra spice!

Do you cook the chicken before putting it in soup? You don't need to in this case, but remember to make sure it is well cooked (and tender!), before shredding it and putting it back to the soup pot for 10 more minutes.

*Very limited and preliminary scientific evidence suggests that eating about 1 tablespoon (16 grams) of corn oil daily may reduce the risk of heart disease due to the unsaturated fat content in corn oil. FDA concludes that there is little scientific evidence supporting this claim. To achieve this possible benefit, corn oil is to replace a similar amount of saturated fat and not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day. One serving of this product contains 14 grams of corn oil. See www.mazola.com for information about the relationship between corn oil and heart disease.
