The recipe from Mama Mecho’s cookbook that started it all. One tablespoon and a cup of hot water make the broth.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Chololoy® Original Seasoning
  • 1 cup hot water
  • ½ chicken breast
  • 2 avocado slices, cubed
  • 1 corn tortilla, cut into strips and fried
  • ¼ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Preparation

  1. Stir 1 tablespoon of Chololoy® Original Seasoning into 1 cup of hot water. When it comes to a boil, the broth is ready.
  2. Season the chicken with Chololoy® Original Seasoning and cook over low heat until done, then cut it into cubes.
  3. In a bowl, layer the cubed chicken and avocado, then the fried tortilla strips, and top with the shredded cheese.
  4. Pour the hot broth over the ingredients just before serving.
4 oz of Chololoy® Original Seasoning makes one gallon of broth. One pound makes 4 gallons of broth. Add 4 lb of chicken for 5 gallons of soup.

• Chololoy® is made only with natural ingredients and no preservatives.
