serves 6
2 corn tortillas
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus olive oil spray
1 onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon chipotle purée or 1 teaspoon smoked hot paprika (pimentón)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
400 g (14 oz) tinned whole plum tomatoes
1½ litres (52 fl oz/6 cups) chicken stock
400 g (14 oz) skinless chicken breast fillets
juice of 2 limes
1 avocado, chopped
1 small red onion, chopped
coriander (cilantro) leaves, for garnish
Preheat oven to 200ºC (400ºF/Gas 6). Use a pair of scissors to cut the tortillas into 5 mm (1/4 inch) thick strips. Place on a baking tray, spray with a misting of oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for about 3 minutes or until lightly toasted. Cool on tray.
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, season with salt and pepper and coook for about 5 minutes or until softened. Add the chipotle purée, cumin, tomatoes and stock and bring to the boil. Add the chicken, reduce heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken and, when cool enough to handle, shred.
Pour the soup into a blender and purée, in batches, until smooth. Return to the pan, add the lime juice and chicken and stir through. Ladle into small bowls and top with a few pieces each of tortilla strips, avocado, onion and coriander.
