Ingredients

SOUP:

2 tablespoons butter.

2 table spoons garlic, minced.

2 whole boneless, skinless, chicken breasts, cubed into 1/2” pieces.

28 ounce can diced stewed tomatoes, juice included.

12 ounces salsa, hot, from a jar in a rush, homemade if you have time. See my simply smashing salsa recipe.

1 bunch cilantro, rinsed and chopped fine.

2 tablespoons ground cumin.

CONDIMENTS:

8 corn tortillas, slices into 1/2" slices.

Sour cream.

Monterey Jack cheese, grated.

Cilantro leaves.

Directions

SOUP:

Melt butter in Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add garlic and sauté until it starts to turn color, about 5 minutes.

Add chicken and cook until chicken is just starting to brown, 5-8 minutes.

Add stewed tomatoes, salsa, cilantro, and cumin.

Cover and bring to a simmer.

Cook 30 minutes.

Slice tortillas into half inch strips, then cut strips in half.

BOWL PREP:

Place some tortilla strips in the bottom of the bowl.

Add some of the grated cheese.

Ladle hot soup over the cheese and tortilla strips.

Top with a dollop of sour cream.

Garnish with fresh cilantro and a few tortilla strips, and a little cheese.

Serve immediately.

DAMN that's good!
