Instructions

In a large soup pot, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Set over medium-high heat.

Add chicken thighs and sear them for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Add seared chicken thighs from the pot to a large plate and set them aside.

Add remaining olive oil, then add the onions, celery, and jalapeños and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.

Stir minced garlic and cumin and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the Roma tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes until the tomatoes soften.

Decrease the flame to medium-low, cover the chicken avocado lime soup and cook it for 10-15 minutes.

Remove chicken thighs, place it on a cutting board, and let it sit for 5 minutes.

Cut the chicken thighs into medium-sized chunks with a sharp knife and return it to the soup.

Stir in parsley and lime juice.

Divide the chicken lime avocado juice between 5 soup bowls. Break a few keto tortilla chips over each bowl of soup, then top with a few avocado slices.
