Ingredients:
1 small avocado, finely chopped
1 tbs. fresh lime juice
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 small green ell pepper, chopped
1 small zucchini, thinly sliced
1 medium jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
2 cups lower-sodium chicken broth
1 (15 oz) can white beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5 oz) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, with juices
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes

Instructions:
In small bowl, gently stir together avocado, lime juice and 1/8 tsp of the salt.

In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper, zucchini, jalapeno, chili powder, and cumin; stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables have begun to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth, beans, and tomatoes and their juices; bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Add chicken and remaining 1/8 tsp slat. Return to a simmer and cook until chicken is cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Top with avocado; serve.
