The SECRET to Making Restaurant-Quality Chicken Tortilla Soup at Home
Recipe Information
Chicken Tortilla Soup
Cultural Context
Chicken Tortilla Soup is a traditional Mexican dish that showcases the rich flavors of the region. It is often enjoyed as a comforting meal, especially during colder months. The soup combines the savory taste of chicken with the crunch of tortilla strips, making it a popular choice in Mexican households and restaurants alike. Variations exist across Mexico, reflecting local ingredients and preferences, but the essence remains the same: a hearty, flavorful soup that warms the soul.
chicken
🥗Healthier: turkey
💰Cheaper: chicken thighs
Turkey is leaner and lower in calories; chicken thighs are more affordable.
cheese
🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast
💰Cheaper: processed cheese
Nutritional yeast is lower in fat and provides a cheesy flavor; processed cheese can be more budget-friendly.
Make broth using store-bought chicken stock, garlic, and dried chipotles, simmering for 45 minutes.
Season chicken thighs with Mexicano seasoning and roast in a wood-fired oven at 450°F with Anaheim peppers and cherry tomatoes.
After 5 minutes, flip chicken and swap with veggies to get color on both.
Once chicken reaches 170°F, remove from heat and steam the roasted peppers to peel the skin.
Brown sliced yellow onions in a Dutch oven with chili oil and Mexicano seasoning.
Add roasted tomatoes and a little stock to deglaze the pan, then add the rest of the stock and black beans.
Peel and chop the roasted chilies, shred the chicken, and add both to the soup.
Simmer the soup for about an hour, then add a cornmeal slurry to thicken.
Adjust seasoning with kosher salt and lime juice, adding pickled jalapenos and fried corn tortillas before serving.
Top with cotija cheese and Mexican crema.
