Chicken Tortilla Soup

I posted this recipe on my Instagram story last week and have been getting requests from several of you daily asking me to write up a blog post so here is what I used. This is really a very simple recipe and it tastes so good! Enjoy

What You Need:

1 onion

1 garlic clove (this is because I love garlic but you can use 3 bulbs if you are such a fan)

1 Bunch of Cilantro

2 Cans of Diced Fire Roasted Tomatoes

1 can of Black Beans

1 bag of Frozen corn

1 Rotisserie Chicken from the store (shred all the meat)

2 boxes of Chicken Broth (during flu season I like one of them to be bone broth)

3 Bay Leaves

1 Tsp of Black Pepper

1 tsp Paprika

2 tsp Cumin

1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper

1 TBS pink Salt

1 TBS Chilli Powder

Steps1: Shred all the chicken into a bowl

Step 2: In an oiled pot throw in the onion and garlic on Medium high

Step 3: After the onion starts to brown lower the heat to medium, throw in all the chicken, mix for a couple minutes

Step 4: Add to Cans of Fire Roasted Tomatoes

Step 5: Add 1 can of black beans (do not drain)

Step 6: Add 1 frozen bag of Corn

Step 7: Chop 1 whole bunch of cilantro and throw it all in

Step 8: Add all the chicken broth

Step 9: Add all the seasoning, black pepper, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, pink salt, chili powder, (mix and taste after a few minutes, taste to make sure you don’t need to add any more salt.

Step 10: Let it cook for 15 min on medium low. (the chicken is cook so no need to cook it long)

Toppings:

I like ti top my soup with:

Sour Cream

Avocado

Mexican Cheese

Cilantro

Jalapeños

Crispy Tortillas or Tortilla Chips

Option #2 Use a InstaPot

Throw all the ingredients in an insta pot, in this recipe I used 3 chicken breasts inside of already cooked chicken, also an option add green peppers. set Instant for 15 min and it should be ready.

Thats it hope you enjoy this quick easy yummy recipe. have a great day!
