Ingrédients

2 tablespoons olive oil

¾ medium white or yellow onion (chopped)

2 celery sticks (chopped)

4 large carrots

2 garlic cloves (whole or minced)

9 cups water

1 8 ounces can tomato sauce

2 large skinless boneless chicken breast

2 chicken legs bone in (skin is optional)

2 chicken flavour bouillon cubes

1 tablespoon kosher or sea salt (if using fine salt, use half the amount) (or more to taste)

½ teaspoon black pepper (or more to taste)

1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano

¼ cup chopped cilantro

1 corn on the cob (cut into 5 pieces)

1 chayote (cut into 2 inch cubes)

Instructions

Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot (5-quart) over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots. Saute until onions start to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook a minute more.

Add the water, tomato sauce, chicken, and spices. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 30 minutes until the chicken starts to soften.

Add the cilantro, corn on the cob, chayote and potatoes and cook for 10 minutes. Then add the zucchini.

Taste for salt and pepper and add more if needed. Cover and simmer for 10 more minutes. Turn off the heat and let it sit for 5 more minutes before serving.

Ladle into bowls and drizzle lime juice and hot sauce.
