CHEF WILLIES CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
Steps:
- Instructions: In your large pot, sauté your vegetables until they become translucent and then add your dried spices and your chopped garlic sauté until the vegetable just start to caramelize then add your water, chicken stock/broth, and diced tomatoes with the juice. Bring to the boil and reduce your heat to just a bubble a second. Add a handful of your tortilla chips at this time all crumbled up and mix thoroughly. Using your pre-heated heavy cast iron pan on medium heat, sauté your chicken until it is nicely browned on all sides but not cooked through. Place the whole pieces into the soup and take a cup of your soup stock and pour into the cast iron pan and lightly scrape the bottom of the pan, let it come to the boil, and pour it into your soup. At this time, only lightly salt in order to flavor the soup and the chicken. Allow your soup to cook for a minimum of 2 hours, de-fatting the top of the soup with a ladel, and then until your chicken is fork tender, at this time use your tongs and pull apart the chicken meat into servable pieces At Service Time: Place in bowls 3-4 Tablespoons of Spanish Rice, soup and then top with a good portion of tortilla strips, your fanned avocado, a well rounded tablespoon of salsa, a good pinch of cheese and another pinch of cilantro. ENJOY!!!
