Pillsbury Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup image

My Youngest Daughter knows how I love recipe books and brought me home this smallish paperback Pillsbury Slow-Cooker Recipe Book where I found this recipe. It is easy peasy, the fragrance whilst it cooked made the house smell so amazing, and the flavor was so very delicous. I have found myself a new comfort food!!! The recipe suggests for a nutricious option adding a thinly sliced zucchini to the soup ingredients. It also states 4 servings, but I found that we had leftovers with four servings which I am NOT complaining about.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite sized pieces
1 cup onion, chopped
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons garlic, dried minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (32 ounce) carton chicken broth (4 cups if using homemade)
4 corn tortillas, 6 inch tortillas cut into 1-inch strips
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
shredded cheddar cheese
sour cream
tortilla chips, crumbled

Steps:

  • Spray 3 1/2 to 4 quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In cooker mix all soup ingredients except cilantro.
  • Cover and cook on low heat setting for 6 to 8 hours.
  • Stir in Cilantro and increase heat setting to high. Cook 15 minutes longer.
  • Serve with the garnishes, or add your own twist to this with your favorite items.
  • ***Note***.
  • So you have last minute dinner plans and didn't start this in the slow cooker? I have made this in a large soup kettle on the stove allowing to cook for approximately 3-4 hours and still wound up with the same delicious and tasty soup. Give it a try either way.
