Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe
This soup has it all – packed with colour, flavour and fibre, and finished off with a spicy kick. Wonderful by itself or get creative by topping it with guacamole, cheese, sour cream and chilli for a twist on traditional nachos!
This recipe contains 10g fibre per serving.
Our method
- In a large saucepan, add the olive oil, onion, garlic and jalapeno chilli and fry over a medium heat until the onion has softened.
- Add the 2 whole chicken breasts and cumin to the pan and fry until chicken begins to brown.
- Cook the peas and sweetcorn according to on pack instructions. Add the chopped tomatoes, chicken stock, kidney beans, cannellini beans, black beans, sweetcorn and peas to the pan.
- Whilst the dish is simmering, slice the tortilla wraps into strips.
- Once all the ingredients are added, reduce the heat and cover the pan loosely with a lid and leave to simmer for 20 minutes or until chicken has cooked through, stirring occasionally.
- Once golden, remove from the heat, and set aside.
- Once chicken has cooked through remove the chicken from the pan. Using 2 forks, shred the chicken then add back to the pan, stir and simmer for a further 3 minutes.
- Serve the soup in bowls and top with the tortilla crisps.
- In a separate pan, fry the tortilla strips in batches in a little olive oil until golden and crisp.
