Yöntemler

In a large 8-quart stock pot, mix the water and Better than Bouillon and bring to a boil on high heat.

Peel and trim 1 carrot, 1/2 onion, 2 stalks celery and 1 poblano pepper. These can be in chunks as they're going into the stock and will be discarded.

Once the water is boiling, lower heat to medium and add raw bone-in chicken, carrot, celery, onion, poblano, fresh cilantro, garlic cloves, dried chiles, corn tortilla and dried thyme.

Cover and simmer for 40 minutes over medium heat.

Prep additional veggies while stock is simmering. Peel, trim and dice 1 carrot, 1 stalk celery, other 1/2 onion and 1 poblano pepper.

Place a large bowl in the sink. On top of the bowl, place a pasta strainer (or finer) above the bowl. You're mainly wanting to keep out the vegetables and chicken. Pour the chicken stock through the strainer.

With tongs, remove chicken thighs from strainer and set aside. Discard all the other ingredients in the strainer.

Pour the strained stock back into the stock pot and add the diced carrots, onions, celery and poblano pepper. Cover and simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes or until carrots are tender.

While vegetables are simmering, pull skin off chicken pieces. Pull chicken from bones and shred. Add shredded chicken back to simmering broth.

Split broth and chicken between four bowls. Add diced tomato, corn, slices of avocado, shredded cheese, fresh cilantro and crunchy tortilla strips to each bowl and enjoy!
