Saute onions and peppers in olive oil or butter till softened, add minced garlic & saute for another two minutes.
Shred the chicken and add to soup pot.
Add the rest of the ingredients accept for coconut milk. Simmer on low heat for at least 15 minutes preferably for 30 minutes. Lastly add coconut milk, heat soup till hot but one doesn't need to simmer the soup again. Taste & add more salt & black pepper if needed.
Tastes great alone or add some of my favorite garnishes: Rosemary's gluten free crackers, avocado, cheddar cheese and cilantro.
