TORTILLA SOUP - THIS IS THE ONE! RECIPE - (3.8/5)
Provided by SallySmo
Number Of Ingredients 18
Steps:
- Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped tortillas, garlic and onion. Saute 2-3 minutes. Add cumin and chili powder. Saute additional minute to bring out the flavor of the spices (and make the house smell good). Add bay leaves and chicken stock and pepper. Return to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Add salt if necessary depending on saltiness of stock. While soup simmers it's a good time to fry the tortillas for garnish. Preheat 1/2-3/4 cups of vegetable oil in a small skillet. Cut tortillas in strips. When oil is hot enough to bubble when tortillas hit the oil, put in enough strips to cover the bottom. Strips are done when they start to turn a golden brown color. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and repeat process with remaining strips. Remove and discard bay leaves. Using an immersion blender, pulse to blend but don't completely puree. You're doing this to thicken the soup but you still want to be able to identify some bits of onion. Stir in chicken pieces. Simmer for 30 minutes then add 3 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro and heat for another 5 minutes before serving. Garnish soup with shredded cheeses, avocado and tortilla strips.
