Chicken Tortilla Soup

I have a favorite recipe that I use for our chicken Tortilla soup but this time I went off the recipe and y’all this was the best pot of chicken Tortilla soup I have made!

The contenders!

1 whole roasted lemon pepper chicken (remove chicken from the bone)

1 can of chicken broth

1 small container of half and half

1 tbsp garlic

2 tsp Ground Cumin

1 cup of mild salsa

1 packet of fajita seasoning

3 tbsp butter

Tortilla chips

fresh cilantro

Mild cheddar

2 tbsp flour

1 tbsp onion powder

Over medium heat sauté your garlic, onion powder, and butter for 3-5 minutes. Add flour and stir until well mixed. Add the chicken broth and half and half. Bring to a boil and continue to stir. Turn on low. Add your salsa, chicken, cumin, fajita seasoning and fresh cilantro. If it’s too thick for your liking, add 1 cup of water. Stir and continue to heat for 15 minutes.
