- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 Red Chili (or to taste) seeded and sliced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chipotle Powder or Chili Powder
- 2 Cans Cherry Tomatoes or diced fire roasted tomatoes 14.5oz each
- 5 Cups low sodium chicken broth
- 14.5 ounce can black beans one can, rinsed and drained
- 1 Cup corn Fresh or frozen
- 2 limes Juiced
- 3 tortillas cut into 1/4-inch strips
- salt and pepper, to taste
- cooking spray
Optional Toppings
- green onions
- fresh chili
Instructions
- Heat olive oil In a large stockpot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, chili, seasonings, and cook until onion softens about 4 minutes.
- Add chicken breast, canned tomatoes, and broth, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until chicken is cooked through about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and spray it with cooking spray.
- Add tortilla strips in a single layer and fry until golden brown and crispy, on both sides. You might need to work in batches to not overcrowd the pan.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove from soup and shred it.
- Add chicken back to the pot together with beans, corn and lime juice. Mix to combine then simmer for a couple of minutes more.
- Serve soup hot with crispy tortilla strips on top and enjoy!
Notes
- You may use any other protein of your choice. To save on cooking time with the chicken breast, consider using rotisserie chicken.
- Add in more veggies if you like.
- Use fresh or frozen corn. If in a pinch and you only have canned corn you may use canned corn.
- Be sure to drain and rinse the beans.
- There are several other toppings you could add to the soup like fresh cilantro, sour cream, and chopped avocado.
- Want a creamier version of this soup? Add about 1/4 cup of cream cheese.
