Team Jordan’s Awesome Chicken Tortilla Soup (Note to self: In the future take a picture of the soup before you’ve inhaled half your bowl!)
Ingredients
- 15 white corn tortillas
- 1 large onion chopped
- 6 cloves of garlic
- 1 handful fresh chopped cilantro
- 3 tbsp of vegetable oil
- 1 grocery store rotisserie chicken chopped
- 2 qt of chicken broth
- 2 cans of Rotel
- 2 tbsp of cumin
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 can whole kernel corn (drained and rinsed)
- 1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
Garnish for serving:
- 3 large avocados, diced
- 1 package queso fresco cheese, diced into cubes
Step 1: Sautee a large handful of the chopped up tortillas, cilantro, all of the onion and garlic with oil in the bottom of a soup pot until onions are semi soft.
Step 2: Add all of the remaining ingredients plus two rotel cans full of water. Bring to a slow boil for 30 minutes.
Step 3: Take the remaining cut up tortillas, brush them with oil and sprinkle them with salt. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at 350* degrees until crispy.
Step 4. Once soup is ready to serve, ladel into a bowl- top with diced avocado, cheese and crispy tortillas pieces and serve.
It’s so yummy, slightly spicy and perfect for a cool fall day!
Enjoy,
