Ingredients:
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon oilve oil
  • 3 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes (or regular if you prefer less spicy)
  • 1 can (4 oz) Old El Paso™ Chopped Green Chiles
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 4 cups cooked and shredded chicken (or rotisserie chicken)
  • 1 packet (1 oz) Old El Paso™ Original Taco Seasoning Mix
  • 1 can steamed corn, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups canola oil
  • 2 tortillas from 1 package (11 oz) Old El Paso™ Flour Tortillas for Burritos (8 Count)
  • 1 tablespoon from 1 container (6.25 oz) Old El Paso™ Original Taco Seasoning Mix
  • Chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 jar (12 oz) Old El Paso™ Hot Jalapeño Slices
  • Light sour cream
  • Reduced fat shredded cheese
Instructions:
  • In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onion and garlic in oil until translucent, about 3 minutes, leaving them slightly undercooked to retain some crunchiness.
  • Saute the onion and garlic until fragrant, then transfer to a slow cooker set on high heat. Add all remaining ingredients, except for tortillas and garnishes, and stir well to combine.
  • Cook on high with the lid on for 2-3 hours or on low for 4-5 hours.
  • Make the tortilla crisps: Heat canola oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat before serving.
  • Coat tortillas generously with olive oil and top with taco seasoning, then distribute the seasoning evenly using a pastry brush.
  • Slice each tortilla into thin 1/2 inch strips using a pizza cutter.
  • Sear the strips in batches for 2-4 minutes until they develop a golden brown color. Don't worry if some of the taco seasoning transfers into the oil.
  • Remove the strips using a slotted spoon and let them drain on a paper towel.
  • When it's time to enjoy the soup, top it with an extra sprinkle of cilantro, low-fat sour cream, jalapeños, and tortilla strips. Feel free to add any other toppings you love!
  • Savor and indulge in the delicious final dish!
