There’s nothing like a warming bowl of soup on a chilly day and this creamy chicken tortilla soup is a perfect option any day! This soup is a super easy to make! Simply cook the veggies, add the broth, beans, chicken and seasoning before simmering until the chicken is cooked and adding the sour cream! The cumin, paprika, and oregano bring the flavours, the green chilies add a mild heat and the sour cream makes it all creamy, comforting and good! Although this soup is good any time of the year, it’s great to enjoy a bowl while watching the game, especially when served with tortilla chips!
