Chicken Tortilla Soup
Makes about 4-6 servings
Ingredients
1/4 of an onion
2 garlic cloves
6-7 tomatoes
1-2 cartons of chicken broth
1-2 cups rotisserie chicken
1 cup frozen corn
Salt
Pepper
Flour or corn tortillas
Vegetable oil
Avocado
Feta or cotija cheese
Cilantro
1. Char the onion, garlic and tomatoes on a pan without oil over high heat. When parts of the onion, garlic and tomatoes are black, remove from the pan and set aside.
2. In a blender, blend the tomatoes, onion and garlic with about 1/4 cup of chicken broth. The mixture should be a bit thick, mostly from the pulp from the tomatoes.
3. In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the rest of the chicken broth and the tomato mixture. Stir and let it cook for about 5 minutes. Add the rotisserie chicken and frozen corn, and let everything cook on low for about 15 minutes, covered. Adjust the soup by adding more broth if you want a thinner consistency.
4. As the soup cooks, prepare the tortillas. Cut the tortillas into strips and then fry them in oil, about 10-20 seconds per side.
5. Assemble the soup by pouring the soup into a bowl, adding avocado, cheese and cilantro on top, and then the tortilla strips around. Enjoy!
