Healthy Tuesday: Chicken Soup with Jalapeno and Lime

Nov 18, 2014 · by Angie

There is nothing quite like a nice warm soup on a cold weather day.  Something about it brings comfort while also warming us inside and out.  There is no reason that a soup shouldn’t be healthy as well as filling and tasty.  Was pretty excited when we tried this soup the other week and really liked it.  We loved that it had a kick because of the lime that you just really aren’t used to in soups.  

Chicken Soup with Jalapeno and Lime

This Chicken Soup with Jalapeno and Lime was found in the Everything Dash Diet Cookbook, so you know it’s a heart healthy happy recipe.

It’s a rather simple and quick recipe as well, which I am finding is quite the normal with soups as we have been trying them out.  I always though that soups took all day to prep and cook, but not so at all.

Chicken Soup with Jalapeno and Lime - Ingredients

I gathered up all the ingredients to take a quick picture of it all to give you an idea of what was going into this soup.  Instead of using cooked shredded chicken, I used canned chicken.  It was easier to have on hand.  I had Jason chop up all the veggies we needed and add them all into that bowl above:  onion, carrots, celery, bell pepper, and jalapeno pepper.

Chicken Soup with Jalapeno and Lime - Simmering

We throw everything pictured into the stockpot and bring to boil.  Once it comes to a boil, cover and reduce it to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.  Presto, that is it.  

You can add chopped cilantro into the bowl and garnish with lime wedges if you so choose.
