Chicken Tortilla Soup

February 25, 2019

Chicken Tortilla Soup is one of my husbands favorites, and since it was a gloomy Sunday yesterday I decided I would make it.  Nothing better than comfort food in the winter!

Chicken Tortilla Soup

If you want the soup to be more low fat, just don’t put the fixings on top (tortilla chips, cheese, avocado, sour cream)!  In this picture I did add plain Greek yogurt to my soup which tones down how spiciness of the soup.

Instructions
  1. Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil over medium heat in a large pot. Add onions, garlic, jalapenos and red Fresno peppers. Cook until onions are translucent.
  2. Add the enchilada sauce, chicken broth and crushed tomatoes first, then add all the other ingredients.
  3. Simmer on low for about 20 to 30 minutes.
  4. Serve soup with tortilla strips or chips, shredded cheese and/or avocado. You can also add plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
Recipe Notes

I added plain Greek yogurt to mine and it helps with the spiciness of the soup and is healthier than sour cream.
