Directions
Chicken Tortilla Soup (Fast and Cheap!), This is how my Mother-in-Law taught me to make tortilla soup It’s a great use of leftovers and a very quick meal for a bunch! The serranos are VERY hot and will burn skin and eyes, so use caution , Really simple yet really tasty Was not expecting it to be so spot on , I have made this soup twice now and loved it both times I made a few adjustments to the recipe substituting roasted cumin in place of regular cumin (just because I think it produces a better flavor), adding a half cup of corn, green bell pepper, and 2 teaspoons of taco seasoning Also, I didn%u2019t have any cilantro on hand so I omitted it, but that didn%u2019t make a difference in the flavor department The first time I made it used leftover chicken The second time used pork Both attempts turn out great results I suggest warming up your tortilla chips in the oven because they come out warm and crisp which goes great with the soup The second time I made this soup I served the chips on the side and my family liked that better I absolutely love this recipe because its versatility and highly recommend it Thanks for posting!
