CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
This version of tortilla soup arises from a dish served at the Rose Garden restaurant in Anthony, Texas. We've streamlined the original recipe, using chicken legs as the base of the stock, pulling off the meat when it's tender, and adding couple of beef bones to give the broth extra depth. Laila Santana, whose mother, Dalila Garcia, owns the Rose Garden, told us the recipe lends itself to improvisation. That it does, so feel free to tweak it to your tastes.

Steps:
- Put the chicken, the beef bones if you're using them, 3 of the onion quarters and the garlic in a large pot. Add water just to cover (about 10 cups) and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so the liquid bubbles gently. Cook, skimming the foam off the surface every now and then, until the chicken is very tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, put the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, fry 2 of the tortillas (one at a time if necessary), turning once, until crisp and golden, 2 to 3 minutes per tortilla. Drain on paper towels. Cut the 4 remaining tortillas into strips, add them to the skillet and fry, stirring to separate them, until crisp and golden, another 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt while they're still warm.
- When the chicken is tender, transfer it to a plate or cutting board with tongs or a slotted spoon (or put it in the fridge or freezer so it cools faster). When it's cool enough to handle, shred the meat with your fingers, discarding the bones and the skin. (If you used beef, discard it or save it for another use.)
- While the chicken is cooling, strain the stock and discard the solids. Peel the remaining quarter of an onion and put it in a blender with the chipotle, 1/4 cup of the cilantro and a sprinkle of salt. Crumble in the two whole fried tortillas and add enough stock to fill the blender a little more than halfway. Purée until the mixture is as smooth as possible.
- Pour the purée and remaining stock back into the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so the mixture bubbles gently and cook for 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the shredded chicken, taste and add more salt if necessary. Divide the avocados, the cheese and the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro among 4 to 6 bowls. Ladle the soup into the bowls and garnish with the fried tortilla strips. Serve immediately with lime wedges if you like.

LEMON CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
Whenever I go out to restaurants, there's always one thing I look for first: chicken tortilla soup. So one day I decided to save myself the trouble of going out and tried making my own from a recipe online (and there are a lot!). I couldn't exactly decide which one would yield the best results so I just took a shot at it from reviewing the basic ingredients (all recipes for this dish are basically the same, with some minor differences). After about four months of making chicken tortilla soup for myself, I've gotten to the point where I'm comfortable making it the same way twice from my own recipe.

Steps:
- Start off by chopping up the raw chicken into small strips or roughly chop it into small, uneven pieces. In large pot, heat about 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium-high. Throw chicken into the pot stirring occasionally.
- As the chicken cooks, finely chop the onion and garlic and throw into the pot once chicken is mostly white.
- Add oregano, cumin, and chili powder.
- Stir in to mix the ingredients.
- At this point what I do is add lemon juice so it's properly incorporated into the dish.
- Let chicken cook until finished (about 5 minutes at this point with frequent stirring).
- Roughly chop the cilantro and tomato and add to chicken.
- Let cook for about 5 minutes.
- You should start to notice a good amount of liquid in the pot from the oil, lemon, and tomato.
- This is when I add the tomato sauce and stir.
- Again, I let sit for about 5 minutes.
- Once it's all nicely incorporated, add the chicken broth.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Add black beans.
- Simmer for about 15 minutes.
- The soup should be an deep red color when finished.
- Ladle into a bowl, add more fresh cilantro, cheese, and crushed tortilla chips. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Start by mixing together the cumin, 1 teaspoon of the chilli powder, the garlic powder and salt. Drizzle the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the spice mixture. Set the rest of the spice mixture aside. Bake until the chicken is cooked all the way through, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove it from the oven. Cut the chicken into cubes and set aside.
- Next, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Throw in the onions, green and red bell peppers and garlic. Throw in a tablespoon of the spice mixture used to season the chicken. Add a little extra chilli powder (about 1/4 teaspoon) for heat. Stir to cook the vegetables until they begin to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the cubed chicken and diced tomatoes, juice and all. Add the chicken broth, hot water and tomato paste. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Add the drained black beans. Next, mix together the cornmeal with 1/2 cup water. Add the mixture to the pot, and then simmer the soup for 10 to 15 minutes. Give it a taste and add salt or seasonings as needed; be sure to not under salt it!
- Cut the tortillas into uniform 2- to 3-inch strips. Stir most of them into the soup just before serving. This is what makes tortilla soup tortilla soup! Turn off the heat and get ready to serve it up. Ladle the soup into a bowl, then add avocado, red onion, sour cream, cilantro and extra tortilla strips to the top. The more toppings on tortilla soup, the merrier.
