Sopa de Albondigas

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Meatballs

    In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a simmer over medium heat. Carefully add the meatballs to the broth and cook for about 10 minutes, until they are cooked through.

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Add diced onion, carrots, zucchini, and tomatoes to the pot. Continue to simmer for another 10-15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve with lime wedges and warm tortillas on the side.
