  • That looks really good! Thanks

  • Here's a version of chicken tortilla soup that's both super-easy and delicious. To make it even quicker, use crumbled baked tortilla chips in place of the homemade tortilla strips and skip Steps 1-2. Serve with lime wedges,avocado slices and hot sauce.

    6 servings, about 1 1/3 cups each

    Active Time: 30 minutes

    Total Time: 45 minutes

     

    Ingredients

    • 8 corn tortillas, halved and thinly sliced
    • Canola or olive oil cooking spray
    • 1 tablespoon canola oil
    • 3 Anaheim or poblano peppers, diced
    • 1 medium onion, diced
    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (see Tip)
    • 4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
    • 1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chiles
    • 2 tablespoons lime juice
    • 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
    • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

    Preparation

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
    2. Spread tortilla strips in an even layer on a baking sheet and coat with cooking spray. Bake until browned and crispy, 12 to 15 minutes.
    3. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add peppers and onion and cook, stirring, until the onion begins to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add cumin and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add chicken, broth, tomatoes and their juice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in lime juice. Serve each portion topped with some of the baked tortilla strips, Cheddar and cilantro.

    Tips & Notes

    • Tip: To trim boneless, skinless chicken thighs, we like to use kitchen shears to snip the fat away from the meat.
