I am so happy the way this Mexican Chicken Soup has turned out. It is low in carb and not very rich. So you can have a big bowl of this soup without any guilt. The smokey flavours of this Low Carb Soup, makes it even more delicious.
The Chicken is perfectly cooked because of slow cooking in a crock pot. If you are not worried about carbs, then load this soup with crunchy tortilla chips or add some charred corn.
