Allrecipes.com Chicken Tortilla Soup
Ingedient List is at the end


For this recipe, I followed a video from Allrecipes.com:


When following a video, it helps to keep your player in a handy spot.
I use a clear plastic decorative plate stand - it's perfect for my Kindle Fire!



  Chop up your onion and garlic.



  Add some extra virgin olive oil to a large heavy pot.



Saute the onion until tender.  Add the garlic and saute a bit more.



Add your seasonings.

 
 
Add the can of crushed tomatoes, the broth, and the water.
Stir to combine, bring to a boil, and let simmer 5-10 minutes.



Shred or chop some cooked chicken.
Add to the pot and continue simmering.



Smells delicious - but wait, there's more!!



Add: the can of corn with liquid, 
the can of black beans with liquid,
and the can of green chiles.
 


Add chopped cilantro.



  While the soup simmers a bit more to allow the flavors to meld,
make a batch of rice and prepare some condiments.  
We like salsa, green onion, and fresh avacado.
You'll also want some tortilla chips handy!


 
  When everything is ready, scoop some rice into your bowl.  I recommend a big bowl.



Ladel a hearty serving of soup over your rice.



   Top with condiments, and enjoy!
