I made this as directed and my only complaint is that it wasn't spicy enough for me, but that was easily remedied with some hot sauce - next time I will add more jalapeno or include the seeds (I left them out). Makes a TON!! Could feed 8 easily! Was this comment helpful? yes no   (2 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not) Showing comments 1-3 of 3

Cooking Directions:

• In a plastic bag with a rolling pin, crush half of the tortilla chips.
• Heat olive oil in a large stock pot until hot, but not smoking. Add onion, peppers, garlic, spice packet contents and salt and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes.
• Add water, chicken broth, chicken, tomatoes, beans and crushed tortillas.
• Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer, covered, for 2 1/2 hours or until beans are tender.
• Just before serving, shred or cut chicken into pieces (chicken will fall apart easily in soup).
• Stir in lime juice and cilantro.
• Garnish with tortilla chips, lime wedges, cilantro and avacado if desired.

Ingredients:

Beans, Tomato, Cilantro and Spices.
