Ingredients:
- 1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper, to taste, optional (my version)
- 3 -6 tortillas, cut into 1/4-inch strips (i use flour tortillas , holly uses corn tortillas)
Directions:
- Saute onion, garlic and green chilies in oil in a large soup pot until onions are tender, about 5-10 minutes.
- Add tomtatoes,both types of broth seasonings, and Worcestershire sauce, and some salt & pepper to taste.
- Simmer 45 minutes-1 hour, covered.
- Holly's Step: Meanwhile, pop torn corn tortilla strips onto a baking sheet and let them toast lightly until crisp for a few minuts (at about 350F),watch carefully so they don't burn; let them cool slightly.
- My step: If I am using flour tortilla, I just cut them into strips with kitchen shears and skipthe toasting part, adding them to the soup as directed below.
- When soup is ready,test for seasonings and adjust as needed, then top with tortilla strips and let simmer 10 minutes (the tortillas will soften and turn into noodles/dumplings) - if you prefer more broth, less noodle, use fewer tortillas, but we like how the tortilla dumplings thicken the soup and absorb all the yummy spices.
- Top each serving with a bit of shredded cheese, sour cream, and cilantro as desired.
