Caldo de pollo is a simple but richly-flavored chicken soup that's packed with vegetables and seasoned with garlic and lots of fresh cilantro.
Step1
Place chicken legs into a large stockpot; pour water over chicken. Add minced garlic, salt, and garlic powder.
Step2
Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook until chicken meat falls off the bones, 1 to 2 hours.
Step3
Stir in chicken bouillon cube until dissolved; add carrots, potatoes, zucchini, chayote, and white onion. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until carrots and potatoes are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Step4
Stir chopped cilantro into soup. Simmer for 5 minutes and serve.
