Instructions
- In a large stock pot over medium, warm the oil then add the onions and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring often, until the onions soften.
- Add the chicken broth, tomatoes, black beans, oregano, cumin, chili powder, salt, and cilantro and bring to a boil, then reduce to a bubbling simmer and cook for 30 minutes.
- Add the shredded chicken and corn and cook until warmed though.
- While the soup is cooking, cut the tortillas into strips and spray with cooking spray or lightly brush with oil. Lay the strips ion a foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Toast until crisp, then sprinkle with kosher salt.
- Spoon the soup into bowls and garnish sour cream, avocado, more cilantor, and cheese. Add a squeeze of fresh lime and serve.
Notes
- *I use my homemade chicken stock to give this soup and extra rich flavor. If you don't have time to make homemade, choose a high quality chicken stock or broth instead.
