Directions
- Put chicken in large pot, add 8 cups water.
- Boil for 10 minutes (skimming foam).
- Add vegetables and bouillon and salt.
- Partially cover and stir occasionally for 1 1/2 hours.
- Use tongs to take chicken out of pot and put on a plate.
- Remove bones and throw away (my husband says that in Mexico, they don't remove the bones, we agree to disagree on that, but you do whatever you want).
- Put soup, chicken, aji (see my recipe, it's like a salsa), sour cream, avocado slices, and cilantro on the table and enjoy.
