This tortilla soup is so yummy, it is the BEST comfort food on a chilly day! The base of this soup is actually really healthy, but it what makes it especially delicious is the cheese, tortilla chips, and avocado toppings. :)
Ingredients
- 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tsp. oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- ½ tsp. minced garlic

- 3 (14.5oz) can chicken broth
- 2 cans corn (drained)
- 1/2 tsp. chili powder
- 2 Tbsp. lemon or lime juice(or both!)
- 1-2 c. salsa (we like using El Pinto brand salsa, it has GREAT flavor!)
- 1 c. tortilla chips
- ½ c. shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 avacado
Instructions
- In large pot boil chicken for about 25 minutes or until cooked through. Remove chicken, cool, and shred. In a large skillet cook onion, garlic in the oil and add cumin. Cook until onions become clear. Drain water from the pot you cooked the chicken in add chicken broth and onion & garlic mixture. Add shredded chicken,corn, chili powder, lemon (or lime) juice and salsa to the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30-40 min. Top with corn chips, cheese, avacado, and a little sour cream.
