Cover chicken with water in a stockpot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; simmer for about an hour, until chicken is very tender. Remove chicken to a plate, reserving 4 cups broth in stockpot. Let chicken cool slightly. To reserved broth, add tomatoes, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice and Worcestershire; simmer for 45 minutes. Meanwhile, chop half the chicken meat and set aside; reserve the rest for another recipe. Stir in remaining ingredients except garnish; simmer an additional 20 minutes. Stir in chopped chicken. Garnish individual soup bowls as desired.
