Chicken Tortilla Soup !

Chicken Tortilla Soup !
The best soup ever!

Ingredients:

• I cheat! ah! Buy a rotisserie chicken! (shhhh...) / half a roasted chicken / chicken breast
• A lot of chicken broth (at least 3 cans)
• Chipotle Chiles in Adobo Sauce - canned (Very specific! This will make or break your soup!)
• 2-3 carrots
• 1-2 celery stalks
• 1/2 an onion
• Garlic
• Fresh cilantro
• Parsley
• Oregano
• Salt & Pepper 
• Avocado
• Tortilla chips
• Olive oil

Start:

1) Chop up carrots, celery, onion, and garlic

2) Pour olive oil in a large pot and saute the carrots - cook for 5-8 minutes

3) Add in the celery, garlic, and onion with some chicken broth

4) Keep the heat on medium and add a little bit of salt, pepper, parsley, oregano

5) Take two tablespoons of the Red Adobo sauce and 2 whole chiles. (The chiles and the sauce make for a very strong and spicy flavor, please taste the broth after a couple minutes before adding any more. I added too many one time (3) and almost ruined the soup.)

6) Cook for 15-20 minutes or until all veggies are tender

7) Cut the chicken breast off of the chicken and pull the meat apart with your fingers. Depending on how much soup you would like to make, use 1 or 2 chicken breast(s), or add in the dark meat if desired! 

8) Add enough chicken broth to cover all of the veggies and chicken - I like mine to be a little brothy. :) 

9) Now you get to eat it! Pour in bowl!

10) Garnish with fresh sliced avocado, fresh cilantro, and crushed up tortilla chips! 

EAT!
