Tips & Tricks (5)

Rotisserie Chicken Pro Hack 🍗
Shred the rotisserie chicken while it's still warm to achieve more tender, easily separated meat and prevent drying out.
Flavor Layering Technique 🌶️
Toast the cumin and chipotle chili powder in the olive oil for 30 seconds before adding other ingredients to unlock their deeper, more complex flavor profile.
Crispy Tortilla Strip Secret 🥣
Cut tortilla strips the night before and let them air dry for maximum crispiness when added to the soup, preventing sogginess.
Spice Heat Control 🔥
Remove the jalapeño seeds and membranes if you prefer a milder soup, or keep them for extra heat and complexity.
Garnish Like a Chef 🌿
Add fresh garnishes like cilantro, lime wedges, and a dollop of sour cream just before serving to maintain texture and brighten flavors.
