Aguadito de Pollo


Traditional Peruvian Chicken Soup
4-5 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut in half
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup chopped cilantro
1 cup frozen mixed veggies
2 cubes chicken bullion
1 cup uncooked white rice
10 cups water

Instructions

1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the onion, garlic, and smashed up chicken bullion cubes, cook until the onion has softened, about 1 minute. Add the chicken, and continue to cook for 5 minutes.

2. Stir in the cilantro, and mixed veggies; cook for 1 minute. Pour in the rice and 10 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken is opaque, about 40 minutes
This is a Davis family favorite of ours since living in Chile. I hope you enjoy!
