Add the marinated chicken along with any juices in the bowl. Bring to a simmer and let it cook gently for 15 mins.
Taste the broth and add more salt as needed.
Add potatoes and simmer for about 10 mins until the potatoes are almost done.
Add tomatoes simmer gently for 5 more minutes until the tomatoes are soft but still holding together.
Do a final taste test and adjust seasoning as needed, then stir in chopped cilantro and serve. You can serve the soup on its own or with jasmine rice.
