Stir chicken in and reduce heat to low.
Steps to make Mexican Lime Soup with Chicken:
- Cut one lime into 4 - 6 wedges and set aside for serving. Juice 1 - 2 limes to make 1/4 cup. (One big lime may be enough.)
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- In a large soup pot, sauté the onion until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and diced chilies and cook for another minute or two.
- Add the chicken, broth, water, lime juice, cumin, salt and pepper to the onion mixture.
- Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover partially and simmer until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle, about 40 minutes.
