Chicken Tortilla Soup
Kaden & I just finished making Chicken Tortilla Soup for dinner tonight. I love this recipe because it’s relatively easy, extremely delicious, & super convenient to make ahead of time, because you can leave it in the crock pot all day (which also helps the flavors blend together really well.)
Chicken Tortilla Soup
- 2 chicken breasts
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 can crushed tomatoes
- 1 can black beans
- 1 can green chilis
- 1 green pepper
- 1 onion
- 2 cups corn
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp salt
Bake chicken breasts.
Put chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, & black beans in crock pot.
Saute green pepper, onion, & corn about 5-10 minutes. Add to crock pot.
Season with spices, adjusting amount to taste.
Once chicken breasts have slightly cooled, shred with fingers (you can cut it up with a knife instead if you like, I just prefer shredded chicken.) Add to crock pot.
Let simmer together for a couple hours. Top with crumbled corn chips, or even healthier, baked tortillas.
Enjoy!
