๐ง ์ฌ๋ฃ

- 1/2 medium Onion(Chopped.)

Prepare the chicken broth: Place the chicken pieces in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add the water, 1 tablespoon of salt, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then immediately reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during the first few minutes of simmering.
โฑ๏ธ 40 minutes - 2
Shred the chicken: Carefully remove the cooked chicken pieces from the pot and set them aside on a plate to cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, shred the meat from the bones, discarding the skin and bones. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot or bowl, discarding the solids (onion, garlic). Return the shredded chicken to the strained broth.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 3
Add vegetables and flavorings: Add the diced carrots, sliced celery (if using), rinsed chickpeas, chopped chipotle peppers, and adobo sauce to the pot with the chicken and broth. Bring the soup back to a simmer over medium heat.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 4
Infuse with epazote: Once the soup is simmering and the carrots are beginning to soften (about 5-7 minutes), add the sprig of epazote. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the herb to infuse its flavor into the broth. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 5
Serve: Ladle the hot Caldo Tlalpeรฑo into individual bowls. Garnish generously with diced avocado, a sprinkle of fresh chopped cilantro (if desired), and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the soup.
