Caldo De Pollo Ingredients
FOR THE HOMEMADE CHICKEN STOCK
-Chicken. You can use a whole chicken or your favorite pieces to make caldo de pollo. I used chicken breast with chicken leg and thigh quarters. Try it with chicken legs and wings, too.
-Water. For the base of the stock.
-Vegetables. You are free to include your favorites, but I am using onion, celery and garlic cloves.
-Peppers. I like chiles de arbol peppers, though it’s great with other dried pods.
-Seasonings. Bay leaves, black peppercorns and salt. I use at least a teaspoon peppercorns, or up to a tablespoon.
FOR THE CHICKEN SOUP
-Vegetables. Again, you can use your favorites, but I am using potatoes, carrots, zucchini, jalapeno peppers, corn, tomatoes and cabbage.
-Tomato Sauce. For more pronounced tomato flavor. Completely optional for you. I enjoy the added flavor.
-Lime Juice. To finish, for a pop of acidity.
-For Serving. Spicy red pepper flakes, fresh chopped cilantro, hot sauce, lime wedges.
