Preparation and cooking overview
Sauté onion and garlic in a Dutch oven until softened, then add garam masala, cayenne pepper, chicken broth, and crushed tomatoes. Cook chicken for 20 minutes until tender. Shred the chicken, blend the soup base until creamy, add heavy cream, and simmer. Top with sliced jalapeno, a drizzle of heavy cream, and minced cilantro. In just 30 minutes, enjoy a comforting and spicy bowl of goodness!
Chef's note
Don't be afraid to experiment and make this soup your own culinary masterpiece. Add extra veggies like spinach or bell peppers for a nutritious twist, or sprinkle some grated cheese for garnish. If you want a dairy-free version, swap the heavy cream for coconut milk or almond milk. And if you're not a fan of spicy dishes, simply omit the cayenne pepper.

Cooking methods
Preparation steps
- Chop the small white onion and mince the garlic cloves.
- Thinly slice the jalapeño for garnishing and chop the cilantro.
- Measure the required amounts of avocado oil, spices, and seasonings.
- Shred the cooked chicken breast using two forks.
Cooking instructions
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened but not browned.
- Add in the garam masala and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth and crushed tomatoes. Add the chicken to the pot and cover.
- Cook for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and shred. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup base until creamy (you can also use a regular blender and transfer the soup back to the pot). Pour in the heavy cream and bring back to a simmer.
- Add the shredded chicken back to the soup and cook another minute or two until reheated. Season with salt to taste.
- Divide the soup between 4 bowls and top with sliced jalapeno, a drizzle of heavy cream, and minced cilantro.
Chef's pro tip
Timing is the key when cooking the chicken. To avoid overcooking the meat, cook it for the recommended 20 minutes or check a few minutes before that. When shredding the chicken, be gentle and avoid over-shredding to prevent a stringy texture.
