Mexican Chicken Soup

3.5 cooked chicken, shredded into bite-sized pieces
3-4 cloves minced garlic
1 t cumin
1/2 t onion powder
1/2 t chili powder
1/2 t cayenne (use less if you don't want it as spicy)
diced tomato
2-3 c homemade chicken broth
1/4 c fresh chopped cilantro (optional)

Preheat pot over medium-high heat.
Add garlic, and cook for 3-5 minutes. (Heat until you see little bubbles around the garlic.)
Use a bit of your broth to keep garlic from sticking to the pot, if necessary.
Add tomatoes, chicken broth, and onion powder, cumin, chili powder, cayenne.

Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to a simmer, and add chicken.

Simmer for 20 minutes.

Stir in cilantro, and simmer for 5 minutes more.
