Chicken Tortilla Soup

This is one of our favorite soups, everytime we make it we are VERY happy we did :)


Ingredients

1 tsp minced garlic
½ onion, chopped
¼ tsp cumin
6 cups (1½ cartons) chicken stock
1 can black beans
1 can or 1 cup frozen corn
½ tsp chili powder
¼ tsp red pepper, if you like it spicy
1 Tbsp lime juice
½ jar salsa
1 chicken breast, raw, diced
For topping each bowl:
Shredded mexican cheese
Sour Cream
Tortilla chips

Directions
Saute garlic and onion in olive oil in large dutch oven for a couple minutes.
Add chicken broth, beans, corn, spices, lime juice and salsa and bring to a boil on high.

When boiling, add raw chicken pieces. Reduce heat and simmer for 6-8 minutes until chicken is cooked. Let stand 5 minutes.

For each bowl, add a handful of shredded cheese, sour cream (big scoop, this is key!), and handful of broken up tortilla chips.
