Straight-forward, non-fussy, you've got these ingredients in the house! And it's soooo good.
Ingredients:
1/2 large purple onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
6 cups chicken stock (preferably homemade)
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
2 -3 cups shredded cooked chicken breasts
1 cup crushed tortilla chips
grated cheddar cheese
hot sauce
Directions:
1. In soup pot, melt butter. Add onion and garlic, saute gently 5 minutes.
2. Add corn, tomatoes, chicken stock, cumin, chicken and tortilla chips.
3. Heat, stirring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching on the bottom.
4. Simmer 20 to 30 minutes.
5. Ladle hot soup into bowls; top with a mound of shredded cheddar cheese, dribble hot sauce over (for those who like it spicier.).
