Chicken Tortilla Soup
I made this the other day and Dustin said it's his new favorite soup! He loved it! I thought it was yummy too!
Ingredients:
3 cloves garlic
1 medium onion
4 tablespoons oil
2 cans mexican-style tomatoes, chopped
2 cans stewed tomatoes, chopped
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups beef broth
1 1/2 cups chicken...chopped (I cooked the chicken in lime juice with salt and pepper)
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
cilantro leaves...from about 10 stalks of cilantro (chopped)
10-15 corn tortillas...cut into bite size pieces and fried in oil right before serving
grated mozzarella (about 1 cup)
1 ripe avocado (sliced)
Saute garlic and onion in oil. Add tomatoes, broths, cumin and chili powderm mixing well. Add cilantro. Simmer one hour on medium heat. Just before serving add chicken and heat all the way through.
Heat oil and drop in cut up tortilla chips...they will cook quickly...remove from oil and allow to drain on some napkins. Salt them after cooking.
When you serve the soup...top each bowl with some fried tortilla chips, some grated cheese and a few avocado slices. (I also sliced some limes and squeezed one and dropped one in each soup bowl.)
