Toppings of choice
Instructions
- Step 1
In a large pot, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil and sauté the onions and salt for 3 minutes.
- Step 2
Add the bell peppers, garlic clove and cumin and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.
- Step 3
Add the broth and remaining ingredients (except for the lime juice & tortilla chips). Bring to a boil, cover, then reduce to a simmer.
- Step 4
After 10-15 minutes (depending on the size of your chicken breasts) remove the chicken from the pot and shred, using a fork or hand mixer. Place the shredded chicken back into the pot with the lime juice and simmer for another 3-4 minutes or until chicken is heated though.
- Step 5
Remove bay leaf, pour soup into bowls, and top with crushed tortilla chips for everyone to stir in on their own. Serve with desired toppings on the side.
