Tortilla Soup Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Cook the Chicken

   In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it once it has cooled.

2. 2

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In the same pot, add chopped onion, minced garlic, and jalapeño (if using). Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are translucent.

3. 3

   Add Remaining Ingredients

   Stir in the diced tomatoes, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and let it simmer for an additional 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Prepare to Serve

   Ladle the soup into bowls and top with sliced avocado, crunchy tortilla strips, a drizzle of crema fresca, and crumbled queso fresco.
