Chicken Tortilla Soup

I got this recipe when I worked at Sundance several years ago. It is a Davies family favorite.

3 Tbsp. olive oil
1 med. red onion, chopped
1 jalapeno, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. cumin seed
2 qts. chicken stock
3 cups chicken, cooked
3 cups Roma tomatoes, chopped
3 cups corn
2 Tbsp. fresh cilantro
avocado
lime wedges
tortilla strips

Saute onion, garlic, and jalapeno in olive oil. Add crushed cumin seed and heat through. Add chicken stock and remaining ingredients (chicken, tomatoes, corn, and cilantro). Simmer 30 minutes. Top each bowl with a lime wedge, chopped avocado, tortilla chips or strips and more cilantro.

Shanna's notes: I like to make this soup when I have chicken leftover from a Costco rotisserie chicken. If not, can broil chicken tenders or breasts sprinkled with seasonings in the oven. For the corn I use the frozen white corn and for the cumin seed usually just ground cumin.
