Salsa Chicken Soup



I made this soup for dinner tonight, it may be spring but it is still in the 40's :( I am a soup lover, but the main man in the house isn't fond of soup for dinner. But, wonders never cease, the man really enjoyed it!!! Sooo, here's the recipe. This is a quick and delicious meal served with salad of your choice.

Salsa Chicken Soup

1/2 pound of boneless chicken breast
2 cups chicken broth
1 3/4 cups water
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
3 garlic cloves minced
1 c frozen corn
1 c salsa
Shredded Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack cheese
Tortilla strips

In large saucepan, combine chicken, broth, & seasonings. Bring to boil , reduce, cover, simmer for 5 mins. Add corn and return to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until chicken is no longer pink and corn is tender about 5 mins. Add salsa and heat through. Top with cheese and Tortilla strips. To make strips just slice tortillas into strips and fry in oil till golden, drain on paper towel and season with garlic salt. Makes 6 cups. Serves 4
