Instructions
- 1 Combine chicken broth, chicken breasts, red onion, garlic, oregano, salt, black pepper, and thyme in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until chicken is no longer pink in centers and juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a cutting board; shred into bite-sized strips and return to simmering soup.
- 2 Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add green onions and chile pepper; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes; continue cooking until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir green onion mixture into soup; season with salt.
- 3 Return soup to a simmer. Add lime juice and 1/2 a lime; cook 10 minutes. Remove pot from heat; remove and discard 1/2 lime. Stir in cilantro; top servings with tortilla chips.
