CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP WITH LIME
The fresh lime and cilantro in this zesty treat remind me of warmer climates-a nice bonus on chilly days here in northern Michigan. I lightened up the original recipe by baking the tortilla strips rather than frying them. -Marianne Morgan, Traverse City, Michigan

CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP WITH LIME
I love chicken tortilla soup. After eating it several times at one of my favorite restaurants I decided to make it myself. This is the recipe I came up with. In this recipe the measurements are not exact as I tend to not measure. It's based on my taste buds. Feel free to add or lessen to make it suitable for your taste buds.

Steps:
- In a large stock pot place the chicken and sprinkle with garlic salt. Add the water until its about 4 inches above the chicken. Wash the lime then cut it in half and add it to the pot. Bring water to a boil and continue until the chicken is cooked throughly. About 1-1 1/2 hours.

- To the broth add the chicken bouillon and let it simmer for a couple of minutes.
- Now add in your canned tomatoes and all your spices. I like to add in about 8 shakes of hot sauce (I use Cholula) Bring to a boil and add in the the zucchini and carrots and the shredded chicken.
- When the vegetables are done cooking your soup is done!
- Garnishes:.
- crumbled tortilla chips.
- shredded cheddar or montrey jack cheese.
- cilantro.
- sour cream.
- hot sauce like Cholula, Tapatio or tabsco.
- lime wedges.
CHICKEN AND LIME TORTILLA SOUP
Well, okay--it might not be your traditional tortilla soup. I challenge you to try this one. I think it's way better. Had something similar at a Mexican restaurant in CA--came home and found this to be so comforting and extremely addictive. Can't tell you how many times I've made it (by request) since then. . .

Steps:
- Cut each piece of chicken into two, through the middle horizontally, to make four equal pieces. (Use a large sharp knife or kitchen shears to get through the bone.).
- In a large stock pot or dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add about 3/4 of the diced onion. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until mildly soft and slightly charred looking--but not burned.
- Remove onion with slotted spoon and set aside. Add the rest of the oil and reduce heat to medium.
- Salt and pepper chicken pieces, then lay skin side down in oil. Saute until well browned (4-5 minutes), then flip over and saute 3-4 more minutes.
- Add whole can of tomatoes, chicken broth, ALL of the onion and jalapeno. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer.
- Add oregano and salt and simmer for 20 minutes more, uncovered.
- Remove chicken from stock, discard skin and bones and shred meat with two forks.
- Add cayenne pepper and lime juice to taste (should be slightly spicy and slightly tart).
- At this point, soup will be fairly chunky. You can blend with a standing burr mixer in the pot, or throw the soup into a blender to smooth out. Or, you can eat it chunky. Whatever.
- Add chicken meat back to stock and reheat.
- Put desired amount of cooked rice in individual bowls, then ladle soup over top and garnish as desired.
- NOTE: To store leftovers, rice must be kept separate from soup, or it will absorb all of the liquid!

Steps:
- Cut tortillas into chips size strips. Heat oil in skillet until very hot but NOT smoking. Quickly fry the strips in batches until they are crisp, 1-2 min per side. Drain on paper towels.
- Fry the chicken breast on a pan until done (i like to pour some lime juice over chicken 1 min before removing from pan - it adds a nice fresh flavour to the chicken). Shred chicken as finely as your time allows. The finer the more the chicken flavour will mix with the soup.
- Make the salsa (tomatoes, onions, garlic, jalapeno, cilantro, olive oil, lime salt).
- Put the salsa and chicken broth in a large sauce pan.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered for 15 minute.
- Puree the soup with hand mixer or in blender.
- Add lime and salt to taste.
- Place tortilla chips and chicken in bowls, pour soup and garnish with shredded mexican cheese or other dry cheese.
- Tip 1 - if you know that you will be making the salsa for the soup only, there will be no need to finely chop any ingredients as it will be blended anyway.
- Tip 2 - I add more garlic and make the soup quite spicy.
- Tip 3 - the tortilla chips can be omitted.
- Tip 4 - I have also used canned diced tomatoes, drained well, instead of fresh tomatoes with good results.

Steps:
- Preheat a medium soup pot over medium high heat and add the olive oil -- a couple times around the inside of the pan should be fine.
- Chop the chicken tenders into bite size pieces.

- Lightly brown the chicken for about 3 to 4 minutes, then add the garlic, bell peppers, onions, jalapeños, celery, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper.
- Continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.

- Add the chicken stock and bring the soup to a simmer.
- Simmer the soup for 15 minutes.
