  2. Push the carrots and onions to one side of the pan and then add in the chicken and seasonings (coriander, cumin, salt and pepper).

  7. Serve topped with the sour cream and tortilla strips.  Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can easily freeze this recipe to reheat for later. I like to freezer them in individual servings. Just make sure not to freezer tortilla strips in the soup as they will get soggy.
