Chicken Tortilla Soup

Preparation

1. Step 1

   In a large pot, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil and sauté the onions and salt for 3 minutes.

   Step 2

   Add the bell peppers, garlic clove and cumin and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.

   Step 3

   Add the broth and remaining ingredients (except for the lime juice & tortilla chips). Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer.

   Step 4

   After 10-15 minutes (depending on the size of your chicken breasts) remove the chicken from the pot and shred, using a fork. Place the shredded chicken back into the pot with the lime juice and simmer for another 3-4 minutes or until chicken is heated though.

   Step 5

   Remove bay leaf, pour soup into bowls, and top with crushed tortilla chips for everyone to stir in on their own. Serve with desired toppings on the side.
