Description
This colorful and super-tasty recipe relies on short-cut ingredients including cooked rotisserie chicken and canned beans and tomatoes. It’s family-friendly (omit the cayenne if your team is sensitive to spicy food) and ready in 30 minutes, making it perfect for busy weeknights. Serve the soup with fresh cilantro, crunchy seasoned tortilla strips, cheese, and avocado for a complete meal. Look for the seasoned tortilla strips in your market’s produce section near croutons — or substitute tortilla chips. To quickly prep the cilantro, just swish a bunch in water, roll it in a kitchen towel to dry, and then chop off any tough lower parts of the stems (the tender parts of the stems have great flavor and crunch). The recipe is a Yummly original created by Marrekus and Krysten Wilkes of Cooks with Soul.
