How to make 5 Ingredient Chicken Tortilla Soup
Step 1: Place all the ingredients (cooked chicken, refried beans, chilli beans, petite diced tomatoes, chicken broth, garlic powder, cumin, chilli powder, and onion powder) in a large soup pot. Stir everything, then bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Adjust the heat to low once boiling, then put the lid on. Allow simmering for about 10 to 20 minutes.
Step 2: Once done, serve the chicken tortilla soup with your preferred toppings such as shredded cheese, tortilla chips, sour cream, avocado chunks. Enjoy!
Notes:
If using full salt chicken broth, you can skip the additional salt. But if you prefer to use low-sodium chicken broth, you may need to add salt. If needed, adjust the salt according to taste after the soup is done seasoning.
Feel free to customize the seasonings. If you want some heat, you can add cayenne pepper, or you can use fresh garlic.
