Instructions

Step 1

In a 5qt Dutch oven or stock pot, add avocado oil, green onions, garlic and jalapeno, saute until all items are soft and fragrant.

Step 2

Add chicken broth, salt and cumin, let simmer for about 20 minutes, you have to let those flavors mingle!

Step 3

Toss in avocado and use an immersion blender to puree until all avocado pieces are pureed and smooth. Alternately, if you don’t have an immersion blender, you can use a blender in small amounts, hot liquids in a blender are volatile!

Step 4

After avocados are completely smooth, add shredded chicken, chipotle chile flakes, lime juice, poblano peppers and chopped cilantro. Taste and add additional salt, pepper and/or lime juice.

Step 5

Ladle into bowls and garnish with suggested toppings above, or simply eat as is…either way your mouth is gonna love this!
