First Recipe Share "Chicken Tortilla Soup"

I started with 1 pkg.chicken tenderloins(about 1.2lbs)
1 can chicken broth
4 cans of water
2 cans of tomato sauce
1 can of black beans(drained and rinsed)
1 can of corn(drained and rinsed)
1 cup of cooked rice
2 cups diced tomatoes and onions(this was combined; I had made pico de gallo earlier in the week and just dumped it in the soup)
1/2 green bell pepper diced
1/2 red bell pepper diced
3 cloves of garlic pressed
Italian dressing 2 squeezes
salt to taste
garlic salt to taste(I added this to the chicken when it was cooking)
lime juice
fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons sour cream(for topping;optional)
handful of tortilla chips
shredded cheese(for topping;optional)
First cook the chicken in the broth and water until very tender.
After chicken is not longer pink in the middle you can start adding the rest of the ingredients in no particular order. I added the cilantro and pressed garlic last this time. I cooked this on Med-hi to med heat. once all ingredients were added I turned it down to med-lo, low. I simmered it for about 35 mins. Served it with 1 tablespoon of sour cream and a handful of cheese and chips. So easy and yummy!
