This recipe was inspired by a tacos day potluck here at work. I decided i wanted to do a soup. Then I bought too much chicken.
The night before:
Add to the crockpot:
A large chopped onion
A large chopped sweet potato
A bunch of chicken thighs (boneless). I think it was like 3.5 lbs. worth.
Chipotle paste. (The paste from the cans of chipotles. Or tomato paste + spices).
A head of garlic, minced
Couple shakes of whatever spices you want. I went with cumin, chili powder, adobo seasoning, and ....?
2 cups of chicken broth
2 cans (fire-roasted) diced tomatoes.
Realize that the slow cooker is tapped out, and won't fit any more vegetables or broth. Hmmm. It's looking more like a really thick stew than soup.
Let cook on low overnight.
In the morning- take out the chicken and shred it. Clear some space in the crockpot by putting some of the chicken and veggies in a container so that the folks at work don't get everything.
Add more broth and a bag of frozen veggies. (My mix container carrots, bell peppers, squash, and green beans.)
Take to work, let simmer on low until lunch! Top with avocado.
Scooter.
And it needs salt somewhere along the way.
