Chicken Tortilla Soup

Recipes »  Soups, Stews and Chili  »  Meat and Poultry

My family loves this soup. It's so easy to make.

 "Very tasty, but also quite rich. I interpreted the "small container" of half and half as a pint, but next time I would use a cup instead. It was a little runny. I would also suggest using either very large chicken breasts or one additional breast." - Heatherina

    I've made tortilla soup several different ways - some good and some terrible. This was definitely very good and easy to make.

    After the cheese was added it took the zip out of the soup so I added another teaspoon or so of chili powder and cumin. This is a great soup
