Chicken Tortilla Soup


Ingredients
2 large ripe avocados, halved and pitted
4 teaspoons TABASCO® brand Green Jalapeño Pepper Sauce, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
3 (14-1/2-ounce) cans chicken broth
3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons uncooked rice
1 large tomato, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
  Tortilla chips
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
   
Scoop out avocado into medium bowl and mash with fork. Add 1-1/2 teaspoons TABASCO® Green Pepper Sauce and salt; blend gently but thoroughly. Set aside.
Heat chicken broth to boiling in 4-quart saucepan. Add chicken breast halves; reduce heat and cook until chicken is opaque. Remove chicken and cut into bite-size pieces. Add rice and cook about 15 minutes or until tender. Return chicken to saucepan. Just before serving, stir in tomato, onion, cilantro and remaining 2-1/2 teaspoons TABASCO® Green Sauce.
To serve, break small handful of tortilla chips into bottom of each bowl. Ladle soup over tortilla chips. Top with cheese and 1 rounded tablespoon avocado mixture. Serve immediately with additional TABASCO® Green Sauce, if desired.
