✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 6 oz Chicken thighs
• 1 can Green chiles
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 2 oz Cream cheese
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 2 tbsp Cilantro

Steps

1. Cut the chicken thighs into bite-size pieces and season with salt and cumin.
2. Sear in a hot oiled pot 5–6 minutes until browned on the edges.
3. Pour in the chicken broth and the canned green chiles with their liquid.
4. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a steady simmer for 20 minutes.
5. The chicken should shred easily when pressed with a spoon.
6. Drop the heat to low and stir in the cream cheese until the broth turns silky and pale green.
7. Taste and add more salt if needed — the chiles vary in heat.
8. Ladle into bowls and top with fresh cilantro.
