1 pound tomatoes (2 large), cored, peeled, and chopped (or 1 cup of canned crushed tomatoes)
2 quarts of chicken stock (homemade is best)
1 teaspoon of dried oregano (preferably Mexican oregano if you have it)
1 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
1 1/2 pounds of skinless, boneless chicken thighs (or breasts if you prefer, we like the stronger taste of thighs), trimmed of excess fat, and cut in half crosswise
1/3 cup lime juice (from 2 to 4 limes, depending on the size)
1 bunch of cilantro, roughly chopped (stems included) for garnish
2 avocados, pitted, peeled, and roughly chopped for garnish
