Tortilla Corn Soup
Ingredients:
1 onion chopped
4 garlic cloves – minced
1 bag frozen corn (16 oz)
6 Roma tomatoes - chopped
2-3 pounds of cooked chicken* – chopped into bite size pieces.
*Boneless, skinless thighs give the best flavor to this soup.
*Try “Just Chicken” at Trader Joe’s - makes the recipe go together faster!
2 large cans of chicken broth
½ cup chopped cilantro
¼ - ½ cup freshly squeezed limejuice. (The amount is your personal preference. The lime juice really adds the “kick” to this recipe.)
4 TBSP “Better than Bouillon” (For those of you watching your salt intake, you can put less in and it will be fine.)
1 cup cooked brown rice
Pepper jack cheese - shredded
Tortilla chips
Sliced avocado
Directions:
Sauté the onions and garlic in a stock pot with a small amount of butter. Then here is the easy part: add everything else to the pot! Simmer for at least one hour.
Place a handful of crunched tortilla chips in serving bowl – ladle in soup – top with shredded cheese, a few more tortilla chips and a slice or two of avocado on top and enjoy!
