Tortilla Soup

This recipe is the BEST Tortilla Soup I have found. I think it gives Cafe Rio's a run for the money...

3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½ tablespoon minced garlic
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
32 ounce can of chicken broth
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 cup chopped onion
½ teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup chunky salsa
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro
tortilla chips
monterey cheese
avocado

1.In a large pot over medium heat, saute the chicken in the oil for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cumin and mix well. Then add the broth, corn, onion, chili powder, lemon juice, cilantro and salsa. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes.

2.Break up some tortilla chips into individual bowls and pour soup over chips. Top with the Monterey Jack cheese,a little sour cream, and some avocado and you’re all set!
