Chicken and Dairy Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (Pound slightly for even cooking or cube for faster browning.)
• 8 oz cream cheese (Soften at room temperature for easier stirring and a smoother finish.)
• 4 cups chicken broth (Use low-sodium broth for better control of salt content.)
• 4 oz canned mild diced green chilies (Drain slightly before adding.)
• 1 medium onion (Chop into small pieces, yellow or white onion works well.)
• 3 cloves garlic (Mince finely or press for even distribution.)
• 1 tsp cumin (Use fresh cumin for warmth.)
• 1 tsp chili powder (Choose a good quality chili powder for rich flavor.)
• 1 tsp paprika (Smoked paprika adds depth, sweet paprika for less smokiness.)
• 1 cup heavy cream (Measure cold and add slowly to prevent curdling.)
• 2 tbsp olive oil (Use mild olive oil for sautéing.)
• 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (Chop and add before serving.)
• 1 medium lime (Use fresh lime juice to enhance flavors.)
