Method
Step 1
Heat oven to 375 F. Slice tortillas into 1-inch strips. Chop half the strips into 1-inch squares, set aside for soup. Toss strips with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and arrange on a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt, set aside. These will be your crunchy garnish.
Step 2
In a large pot, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-low heat. Add tortilla squares and cook for about 1 minute. Add chili powder, cumin, garlic, onions and cilantro. Cook for about 10 minutes until onions are soft, stirring frequently.
Step 3
Add stock and tomatoes with chilies. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes. Add chicken, cook for about 5 minutes until warmed through. Add more stock, if desired, if mixture is too thick.
Step 4
Serve soup in bowls garnished with crispy tortilla strips, extra cilantro, avocado, lime juice, red onion, queso fresco and sour cream, if desired.
