A flavorful and hearty Poblano Chicken Tortilla Soup that combines tender chicken, roasted poblano peppers, and a variety of spices, topped with fresh avocado and crispy tortilla chips.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 poblano peppers, diced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup tortilla chips, crushed
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  2. Add the diced poblano peppers, cumin, chili powder, and smoked paprika. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes, black beans, shredded chicken, and corn. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. While the soup is simmering, prepare your toppings. In a small bowl, combine the diced avocado, chopped cilantro, and lime juice.
  5. To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and top with crushed tortilla chips, the avocado-cilantro mixture, and shredded cheese. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the soup.
  • You can substitute the chicken with shredded rotisserie chicken for a quicker option.
