| 1. In a large pot or dutch oven combine chicken pieces, water, parsley, pepercorns, celery, onion quarters, salt and thyme or oregano. | 2. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook until chicken is tender-around 1 1/2 hours-skim fat. | 3. Remove from heat and remove chicken-cool and de-bone and skin. | 4. Strain and reserve broth (a few layers of wet cheesecloth would be fine). | 5. In the same pot heat the veg oil, add the onions and peppers and saute for 5 minutes or until tender. | 6. Add the tomatoes and carrots and cook for 5 more minutes. | 7. Add the reserved broth, squeeze in the lime juice and then throw in the lime halves. | 8. Stir in the parsley, season with salt and pepper and simmer for 45 minutes. | 9. Add the chicken and heat until the soup bubbles. | 10. Taste and adjust seasonings. | 11. Remove lime halves. | 12. Set out bowls-up to 8 and add 6-8 tortilla chips to them, ladle soup and add a slice of lime to each. | 13. Offer more chips at the table. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
