Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread tortilla strips on 2 baking sheets. (2 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Bake for 10 minutes, or until crisp and lightly browned. Reserve 5 tortilla strips for garnish. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and oregano; cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. (5 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Stir in soup and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Stir in chicken and black pepper; cook until hot and bubbling. (10 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Stir in remaining tortilla strips; cook until hot. Remove from heat. Sprinkle with cheese. Top with reserved tortilla strips and cilantro, if desired. Serve with lime wedges. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the onion and garlic while sautéing.
If you prefer a spicier dish, add a diced jalapeño pepper along with the onion and garlic.
Queso fresco is a traditional Mexican cheese that crumbles beautifully and adds a salty tang. If you can't find it, Monterey Jack is a great substitute.
To make your own tortilla chips, you can fry the tortilla strips in hot oil until golden brown and crispy.

    I added some leftover roasted vegetables to the chicken mixture and it was even better!

    The chipotle soup gives it the perfect amount of heat. I'll definitely be making this again.

    Great recipe! I used cotija cheese because that is what I had on hand and it turned out great!
