For a richer flavor, use bone-in chicken thighs and shred the meat after cooking. Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra tang and creaminess. Customize the heat level by adjusting the amount of chili powder and green chiles. To make this recipe vegetarian, substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth and add a can of black beans or pinto beans for protein.
