Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup - Gluten-Free

0 Add avocado oil to a 10” skillet and heat over medium-high heat until it reaches 350F. Working in batches, cook the tortilla strips, tossing occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, around 4 minutes per batch. Reserving the cooking oil, transfer the tortilla strips to a tray lined with paper towel and immediately season with a pinch of salt. Toss to coat and set aside.
1 Transfer 2 tablespoons of the cooking oil into a large sauté pan or stock pot and heat over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion, poblano pepper and jalapeño. Season with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until the onion is soft and translucent, around 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 60 seconds. Add the oregano, coriander, cumin, paprika, smoked paprika, chile powder and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, around 60 seconds.
2 Add the Kettle & Fire Organic Chicken Broth, diced tomatoes, chicken thighs, bay leaves and black pepper. Raise the heat to high, bring the liquid to a boil, lower the heat to a simmer, cover with a lid and cook until the chicken thighs are cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, around 12 minutes.
3 Transfer the chicken to a bowl and use two forks to shred the meat apart. Return the chicken to the soup, taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as desired.
4 Ladle the soup into individual serving bowls and top with the fried tortilla strips, radish, avocado, and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing and enjoy.
