This recipe really has no origin. My sister and I are lovers of Chicken Tortilla Soup, but seeing as each place makes it differently, we decided to create our own. The recipe that follows is made from many revisions to our original recipe- and has turned into our favorite tortilla soup recipe! It easily comes together in less than 5 minutes and tastes delicious after simmering in the crock pot for several hours (letting all the flavors meld together), but can also be cooked on the stovetop.

1 rotisserie chicken, cut into bite sized pieces (2-3 cups if using regular cooked chicken)
32 oz chicken stock
1 15oz can of tomato sauce
1 15oz can of diced tomatoes, fire roasted
2 11oz cans of "Mexi-Corn" (corn mixed with peppers and/or black beans)
1 15oz can of black beans, drained
1/2 c. diced onion
4 garlic cloves, sliced thin
2-3 large Roma tomatoes, diced (or add an additional can of diced tomatoes)
1T chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp tabasco sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Garnish (optional)
I like to top mine with sour cream, cheddar cheese, avocado and tortilla chips. You can also squeeze in some fresh lime just before serving for a nice kick.

It's as easy as 1-2-3! 1- Prep Cut chicken into bite sized pieces, dice onion and tomatoes, slice garlic. 2- Open all cans, drain the corn if needed. 3- Pour all ingredients into crock pot and cook on high...
