Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, using twice as much oil as needed to completely coat the bottom. Add the chicken and cook for 4 minutes. Add the cilantro, thyme, salt and pepper to taste, then add the onion, bell pepper, and jalapeño, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the tomatoes and broth and heat through.

    While the soup is cooking, break up some corn chips and divide them into 4 deep bowls. You'll need a couple of handfuls for each. Sprinkle the chips with a little cheese. Toss the avocado with lime juice. Pour the soup over the chips. Serve the soup with avocado, green onions, cilantro, or parsley.
