Tortilla Soup

EatingWell

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 vinegary coleslaw, lime wedges and hot sauce.

Yield: 6 servings, about 1 1/3 cups each

Preparation Time: 45 minutes

Please Note: Nutritional values listed may vary from final results depending on actual measurements, products and brands used to prepare the recipe.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

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.

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.

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