Ingredients

1 tablespoon lard or butter
1 large white onion, chopped
1 pound tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped (if fresh tomatoes are unsatisfactory, use imported canned whole tomatoes)

2 quarts chicken broth
1 pound chicken breasts, poached and shredded
1/2 lime, sliced
Tortilla chips for garnish
Chilis of choice for garnish
1/2 medium white onion for garnish
3 limes, chopped, for garnish

Steps:

In a large saucepan melt lard or butter. Add onion, and cook until translucent. Do not brown. Add tomatoes, and cook over high flame for about 3 minutes. Stir in the green peppers and chicken broth. Simmer about 10 minutes. Add lime slices, and let simmer for 5 more minutes. Add salt to taste.
Place some tortilla chips in each bowl; add equal parts of the shredded chicken. Pour hot soup over everything.
Serve garnished with chopped onions, ground hot chilis and chopped lime.
