Instructions

Melt the coconut oil in a big pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Toss in the onion, celery, garlic, and jalapeños and stir for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

Move the veggies to the side, then add the chicken along with the cumin, chili powder, coriander, oregano, salt, and pepper. Brown the chicken for about 5 minutes, turning it so all sides get a little color.

Pour in the broth and the diced green chili. Bring the soup to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 15 minutes.

Take the chicken out and shred it into small pieces using two forks.

Put the shredded chicken back into the pot, stir in the coconut milk, and turn the heat up to medium-high. Bring it to a boil and let it bubble for 10 minutes until it thickens up a bit. Remove from heat and serve with your favorite toppings.
