MEXICAN CHICKEN SOUP WITH CHICK PEAS, AVOCADO AND CHIPOTLES



Mexican Chicken Soup With Chick Peas, Avocado and Chipotles image

This is inspired by a traditional Mexican soup called sopa tlalpeño. The chipotles, added shortly before serving, infuse the soup with a smoky, picante flavor. Cook the chicken breasts a day ahead, and use the broth for the soup. Once the chicken is cooked, the soup is quickly thrown together.
