Chicken Tortilla Soup



Initially found on Pinterest, here, direct link to the recipe here.

I tweaked a few minor things in order to get the delicious result you see photographed above, but you can basically follow her recipe and get super tasty goodness. I have here, my slightly altered recipe:

The Shit List


  • 1 lb Chicken
  • 1 15 oz. Canned Corn
  • 1 15 oz. Original Rotel
  • 1 15 oz. Canned Black Beans, drained
  • 6 cups Chicken Stock
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin 
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Onion
  • 2 tsp Minced Garlic
  • 1/4 tsp Chili Powder
  • 3/4 tsp Black Pepper

How to Handle That Shit

  1. Cook and shred (or cube) chicken. I find the shredded texture not only easier to eat, but a lot more tasty, as it absorbs the seasonings better.
  2. Dump chicken and the rest of the ingredients into a crock pot, cooking on low for at least 8 hours (hello, employed people!) or on high for 4 hours.
  3. Scoop some deliciousness into a bowl, and top with Monterey Jack Cheese, Tortilla Strips/Chips, and if you're not allergic like me, cubed Avocado.
  4. Eat it. Eat it all.
