20-MINUTE ROTISSERIE CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
I love a hearty soup because it's naturally a one-pot meal, and this 20-Minute Rotisserie Chicken Tortilla Soup packs in so much flavor! I love to use rotisserie chickens as a protein source on busy weeknights — or when I'm just feeling a little lazy!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken bone broth
- 1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 2 fresh Roma tomatoes, diced
- 1 cup fresh or frozen corn
- 1 tablespoon pickled jalapeños, chopped (+ a few tablespoons of juice from the jar)
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 4 small gluten-free corn tortillas, cut into strips
- 1 fresh lime, juiced
- 4 cups shredded chicken (I used rotisserie)
For Serving:
- Chopped cilantro
- Diced avocado
- Crushed tortilla chips
- Fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Heat avocado oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add the onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute or until fragrant.
- Add all the bone broth, diced tomatoes, fresh tomatoes, corn, pickled jalapenos, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the tortilla strips and cook for 2 minutes.
- Finally, stir in the shredded chicken and simmer for 1 or 2 more minutes while the chicken heats through.
- Ladle into a soup bowl and garnish with toppings of choice, such as chopped cilantro, diced avocado, tortilla chips, and lime juice.
- ENJOY!
Notes
Like many soups, this recipe is great for meal prep. Store it in the fridge for lunch the next day or keep some frozen for those nights when all you have the energy for is to reheat something on the stovetop.
