Directions

1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add scallions and jalapenos, and sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Add garlic during the last 30 seconds of sautéing.
2. Add chicken broth, tomatoes, cumin, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add chicken breasts and bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
3. Reduce heat to low, remove chicken from the pot, and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Shred the chicken and return it to the soup. Stir in cilantro and lime juice.
4. Add avocados to the soup just before serving. If not serving immediately, add avocado to each bowl individually, about 1/3 avocado per serving.
