Directions
Cheesecake Factory Chicken Tortilla Soup – Copycat, I have seen a surge in requests for this recipe, which I found very hard to locate! Enjoy my efforts : ), It also contains potatoes, zucchini and black beans There’s no cream The cilantro is a garnish and so is the cheese, which should be cheddar jack It’s poured over the top of white rice I worked there for 3 years and it was my favorite menu item , Here in Albany NY, this soup contains essential ingredients missing from this recipe: black beans, potatoes and rice Only the potatoes and carrots are cut in large chunks for mouth appeal All others are small pieces, and the rice is very small But, included with the tomatoes, and topped with the shredded cheese and tortilla strips on top, they make a wonderful vegetable soup I cannot detect any whipping cream in the version served here in Albany – it’s a heavenly, clear broth, deliciously satisfying in both cold and hot seasons It’s served only on Thursday, so I make it a weekly treat!
