Welcome to another video edition of the Eclectic Fox.  Today I’ll be demonstrating how I make slow-cooker chicken tortilla soup.  It’s a great soup that is extreamly easy to make.  Prep time is about 15 minutes and cooking time is just about 6 hours.   The recipe is listed below.  I hope you’ll give it a try!

INGREDIENTS

• • 1 pound shredded, cooked chicken
  • 1 (15 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, mashed
  • 1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • 1 Lime (for a nice citrus taste at serving)

INSTRUCTIONS

• 1. Place chicken, tomatoes, enchilada sauce, onion, green chiles, and garlic into a slow cooker. Pour in water and chicken broth, and season with cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Stir in corn and cilantro. Cover, and cook on Low setting for 6 to 8 hours or on High setting for 3 to 4 hours.  At serving, squeeze one lime slice into your bowl for a nice citrus kick.
