A fast and flavorful tortilla soup made with just 5 ingredients—perfect for quick weeknight dinners.
Ingredients
- 4 cup chicken broth
- 2 cup cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
- 1 cup salsa (mild, medium, or hot – your choice)
- 1 cup frozen or canned corn
- 1 cup tortilla strips or crushed tortilla chips
- Optional toppings: avocado, shredded cheese, sour cream, lime wedges, cilantro
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a large pot, add chicken broth, shredded chicken, salsa, and corn. Stir to combine.
- Simmer: Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes.
- Add tortilla strips: Just before serving, stir in the tortilla strips or chips. Or, top each bowl individually to maintain crunch.
- Serve: Ladle into bowls and garnish with desired toppings like cheese, avocado, or a squeeze of lime.
Notes
- Use store-bought rotisserie chicken for faster prep.
- Choose salsa based on your spice preference—chunky, smooth, or fire-roasted all work!
- Add extra broth if you prefer a thinner soup consistency.
