The Best Chicken Tortilla Soup I ever had! I follow the recipe exactly except I added a some bouillon cubes to give it more flavor.

Fantastic!! This is the new favorite soup in our home! The only change I made was only adding 2 cups of water . . . we like thicker soups . . . & I added a little cayenne pepper to kick up the heat a little. Thanks for another great recipe!!

Was at a Mexican restaurant on Friday night – LOVED their chicken tortilla soup and have been craving it ever since. Found this recipe…WOWWWWWWW!! Even better than at the restaurant…heartier and deeper flavors.
I made a quadruple batch (everyone in my house loves soup and we like to have leftovers). Made exactly to recipe and multiplied everything by 4 with these exceptions…used only 2 cans of black beans instead of 4, and instead added 2 cups of minute rice and 2 cups of hot water during the last 15 minutes of cook time. (The little bit of rice was a really nice addition.) I also used 2 whole rotisserie chickens for ease & simplicity vs. rubbing/baking chicken breasts.
My fiancé asked to have this on his “Top 3 Rotation”! =] Thank you PioneerWoman!!

Seriously the best chicken tortilla soup I have made (and I have tried a few!) The cornmeal/masa is a great addition and really gives it an amazing flavor, don’t leave this part out!

My husband requested chicken tortilla soup last weekend. I’ve never liked this soup in restaurants, but really enjoyed it homemade. We added a jalapeno to the recipe, but otherwise followed the directions. I also included more chicken.

I would add a squeezed lime before serving. This was good and everyone had several helpings. The leftover I will freeze for later. A must try…

The flavors were so delicious. We loved it. Since we don’t care for corn tortillas, we skipped them and made cornbread to go with the soup. Yum.

I chose this because I had a can of Rotel tomatoes with green chilies and this recipe had some of everything I liked about the others I checked. It was probably the most delicious tortilla soup I’ve had east of Taos. I used a rotisserie chicken to make the broth and used about half the chicken. Fabulous. Absolutely nothing to change here. Can’t wait for the leftovers.

Fantastic and so comforting. It made my house smell glorious. I added celery and a cup of corn – a definite hit and I will be doing it again.
