Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent. Add the chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Broth and Rice

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the rice, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Vegetables

    Stir in the spinach, peas, and salsa verde. Let the soup simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the spinach is wilted and peas are heated through.

  4. 4

    Finish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken breast, shred it, and return it to the pot. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve hot, garnished with diced avocado and a wedge of lime.
