Cafe Rio Chicken Tortilla Soup

I found this recipe and tried it last night. It is sooo yummy i thought i would share it!

1 recipe taco chicken (recipe follows)

1 lb. chicken breasts

2 juicy limes

a splash of red wine vinegar

2-3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp. chili powder

1/2 tsp. cumin

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

Juice the limes and combine with a couple splashes of red wine vinegar. Add garlic and pour over chicken. Turn chicken occasionally to marinate all over. Marinate at least 4 hours. Combine spices and rub all over chicken. Grill on barbeque. Let chicken rest 10 minutes before slicing so you don't lose all the juice. Now you are ready to make the soup.

1 large onion, chopped

1 T. garlic, minced

4 cans chicken broth

1 15oz. can diced tomatoes

2 jalapeno peppers

1/4 c. fresh lime juice (3-4 limes)

1 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper

In a large pot over medium heat add 3T. olive oil and onions. Saute 4 minutes. Add garlic and minced Jalapenos without seeds and cook a few more minutes. Add diced chicken, chicken broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. While soup is simmering, juice the limes and set aside. Right before serving, add lime juice to the soup. Ladle soup into bowls and add toppings. We like crushed tortilla chips, grated cheese and avocados.
