6 quarts of water

1 tbsp black pepper
1 packet sazon seasoning
1 large onion (chopped)
5 medium size carrots (chopped about 5 pieces each)
2 chayote squash (cut in quarters)
3 large stalks of celery (chopped medium pieces)
1 medium size yuca root (peeled and cut in large pieces)
a handful of fresh cilantro roughly chopped (about 3 tbsp when done)

Directions
cut chicken into pieces (breasts in half), add to water, bring to boil, reduce flame to medium (almost a simmer) and let cook approximately 30 minutes. Add all other ingredients except the baby bok choy and let simmer for about another 20 minutes until vegetables are still a little firm but not soft and mushy.
