Como fazer Caldo Tlapeo A Mexican Chicken And Rice Soup
- In a large pot, add 8 cups of water and 1 whole chicken (about 3-4 pounds). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 60-75 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
- Remove chicken from broth and let cool completely. Once cool, remove skin and shred meat, discarding bones.
- Skim fat from the chicken broth. (You can refrigerate the broth and shredded chicken overnight for easier preparation.)
- Dice shredded chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat 6 cups of the reserved chicken broth in the pot. Add 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until carrots are tender.
- Add 1 cup of uncooked long-grain white rice to the pot.
- Stir in the diced chicken. Increase heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until rice is cooked through and liquid is absorbed.
- Before serving, add 8-12 cubes of queso fresco (or your preferred cheese) and ½ of a ripe avocado to each bowl.
- Ladle the soup over the avocado and cheese.
- Stir gently and garnish with a pinch of chipotle powder to taste. (Start with a small amount, as chipotle can be quite potent.)
- Serve hot with breadsticks or warmed tortillas.
