How To Make chicken fajita soup

    in a large pot, add cut up chicken(with bones and skin still on) and cover with water and add salt. Simmer about 45 minutes until chicken is done, then remove chicken to cool and shred. Strain broth if foam developed on top.

    add cut up veggies and taco seasoning to broth and boil about 10 minutes, then lower temp to simmer and add chicken back to pot after skin/bones have been removed and meat has been shredded/chunked to your liking.
