1	small onion, chopped (1/3 cup)
2	cloves garlic, finely chopped
1	medium Anaheim, poblano or jalapeño chile, seeded, chopped

Add garlic and chile; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir in broth, tomatoes and salt. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 15 minutes. Add chicken; heat until hot.
3.	To serve, divide half of tortilla strips among 6 individual serving bowls; ladle in soup. Top with avocado and cheese; garnish with remaining tortilla strips and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

Chicken tortilla soup

My family is REALLy really picky yet I made the soup tonite and they ALL loved it. My boys and husband LOVED it and asked when I was to make it again. Only thing I did different was to avoid the chile pepper. I did not want to make it to hot. But it was still good!!!!!!

Outstanding!

This soup was so easy and absolutely outstanding. I started by cooking the chicken on the grill with some pepper, oregano, basil and red pepper. Once I mixed everything together I transferred it to a crockpot and set it to warm for about two hours and all of the flavors blended together well. Note I did add some kidney beans and corn to the soup as well. I also added some chili powder and crushed red pepper to give it an even better "kick." However if you don't like spicy definitely skip that!

GREAT!!!!

I loved this soup! It reminds me of the soup I order when I go to the local Mexican restaraunt. I did alter the recipe and I believe it made the soup that much better. -When cooking the onions, I added the chicken and cooked it too as well as chili powder and cumin. -After adding the broth and tomatoes, I added about a cup of frozen corn (about a can of drained corn). -I then added more cumin and chili pepper to taste. I'll definately make this again!

Loved it!

This soup was so yummy and really easy to make! I added a little more chicken and broth just to have more soup for leftovers. I skipped the avocado and limes, but it was really fun to have the baked tortilla strips. The soup was a hit with my family and I'll definitely make it again!

Chicken Tortilla Soup= Awesome

I made this soup and it was a huge hit. I didn't use the lime because my family wasn't too crazy about that idea. The soup turned out great! They told me to make it again next week.
