Lemon Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, lemon juice, carrots, onions, celery, soup base, and white pepper. Bring to a boil on high, then simmer for 20 minutes.
• Blend the butter and the flour together. Then gradually add it to the soup mixture. Simmer for 10 minutes more, stirring frequently.
• Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks until light in color. Gradually add some of the hot soup to the egg yolks, stirring constantly. Return the egg mixture to the soup pot and heat through. Add the rice and chicken. Ladle hot soup into bowls and garnish with lemon slices.

Steps:

• Start off by chopping up the raw chicken into small strips or roughly chop it into small, uneven pieces. In large pot, heat about 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium-high. Throw chicken into the pot stirring occasionally.
• As the chicken cooks, finely chop the onion and garlic and throw into the pot once chicken is mostly white.
• Add oregano, cumin, and chili powder.
• Stir in to mix the ingredients.
• At this point what I do is add lemon juice so it's properly incorporated into the dish.
• Let chicken cook until finished (about 5 minutes at this point with frequent stirring).
• Roughly chop the cilantro and tomato and add to chicken.
• Let cook for about 5 minutes.
• You should start to notice a good amount of liquid in the pot from the oil, lemon, and tomato.
• This is when I add the tomato sauce and stir.
• Again, I let sit for about 5 minutes.
• Once it's all nicely incorporated, add the chicken broth.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
• Add black beans.
• Simmer for about 15 minutes.
• The soup should be an deep red color when finished.
• Ladle into a bowl, add more fresh cilantro, cheese, and crushed tortilla chips. Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, cook and stir chicken in the oil for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cumin and mix well. Then add the broth, corn, onion, chili powder, lemon juice, and salsa. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Break up some tortilla chips into individual bowls and pour soup over chips. Top with the Monterey Jack cheese and a little sour cream.
