Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until browned and tender, about 5 minutes.

02

Step
2 mins

Stir in chicken broth and canned tomatoes, then add fresh tomatoes.

03

Step
20 mins

Mix Anaheim chile peppers, jalapeño pepper, cumin, chili powder, and black pepper into the pot. Stir in chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until flavors combine, about 20 minutes.

04

Step
5 mins

Ladle soup into serving bowls; squeeze a lime wedge into each bowl. Top with corn chips, sour cream, Cheddar cheese, avocado, and cilantro.

For a smoky depth, char the fresh tomatoes and peppers under the broiler before dicing.
Adjust the jalapeño pepper to control the level of spiciness.
If you don't have rotisserie chicken, you can use 2-3 cooked chicken breasts, shredded.
For a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth and add black beans or corn for extra heartiness.
Garnish generously! The toppings are what truly elevate this soup.
