Tanya's You "can" Do It Chicken Tortilla Soup

Recipe #302773 | 2½ hours | 30 min prep | SERVES 10 , 3 quarts (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: The X-ray Cook

This is an easy recipe and a "cheater". Throw it all in the crock pot for dinner when you get home or in a stock pot to simmer. Works great either way and my family loves this.

Ingredients

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, rinsed (you can use an equal amount of cooked dry beans)
  • 2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup
  • 2 (10 ounce) cans old el paso red enchilada sauce
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast
  • tablespoons oil
  • 1 (7 ounce) can sliced black olive
  • 2 garlic clove, crushed
  • cups chicken broth or water
  • shredded cheddar cheese
  • sour cream (optional)
  • tortilla chips (Juanita's Tortilla chips have the best texture for this)
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Cut chicken into cubes and cook in 2 Tbsp of oil in a frying pan, when almost done, add garlic. Saute with garlic until chicken is completely done.
    2. 2
      Pour all cans of ingredients into crock pot or stock pot with chicken/garlic mixture. Drain olives before putting in with other ingredients.
    3. 3
      Add the two cups chicken broth or water.
    4. 4
      Stir soup until all ingredients are combined.
    5. 5
      Cook for 2 hours on med-low in stock pot on the stove or 7 hours on low in a crock pot.
    6. 6
      Add more water or chicken broth for desired consistency.
    7. 7
      When ready to serve, crush tortilla chips and sprinkle with shredded cheese over individual servings of soup.
    8. 8
      Add sour cream if desired.
    9. 9
      This recipe can easily be increased or decreased as desired. All measurements are estimates as I usually just "throw it all in", but this is the closest to my normal routine.

    I love this soup! I love the ease of making it and I love how much flavor it has. This is easy to throw together and it is a crowd pleaser! Make sure the chips are like the ones from your favorite mexican restaurant- not the big grainy mass produced ones!
