This low sodium, broth-based soup is so easy to make that it'll surely
become a quick go-to meal in your home. Simply top with tortilla strips,
cilantro, and freshly chopped avocados, which are packed with heart-healthy
monounsaturated fats.

Serves: 4
Prep: 4 min
Cook: 16 min
Total: 20 min

5 cups low-sodium chicken broth
5 white corn tortillas (6"), sliced into 1/4" strips
12 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced crosswise
1/2 canned chipotle chile pepper, sliced OR 2 Tbsp hot salsa
3/4 cup halved grape tomatoes
1 cup chopped avocado
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves

1. In a large, heavy saucepan, bring the broth to a boil, covered over
high heat.

2. Meanwhile, scatter the tortilla strips on a toaster oven tray. Toast,
turning the strips occasionally, until golden-brown in spots, about
5 minutes. Remove the tray from toaster oven and set the tortilla
strips aside.

3. When the broth boils, add the chicken, chile pepper, and tomatoes
and return to a boil. Remove from the heat. Divide the tortilla strips,
avocado, and cilantro leaves evenly among 4 bowls, mounding them in
the center. Ladle the soup into bowls.
