This soup is delicious! It's actually quite easy to make, with the chicken roasting while the rest of the deliciousness is brewing on the stove. Everyone here loved it alot.

The photo doesn't do this recipe justice! I use this recipe for entertaining all the time. It's delicious and presents well with the suggested toppings. I simply vary the amount of jalapenos depending on who's coming for lunch/dinner. When in a time pinch, I buy an already cooked rotisserie chicken from the grocery store - fast and non-flavor-sacrificing alternative. Cheers!

Very delicious! Made this so many times and it became the family's favorite soup. Ina never failed to impress me. I have been learning to cook Mexican and my husband said this is the best Tortilla/Mexican soup he ever had.
BTW, I had no coriander but still the soup tasted great without it. Don't skip the cheese, avocado, sour cream and of course tortilla chips toppings.

Didn't change a thing and it was PERFECT! The timing was right on and all the veggies still had a little bite. Love Ina, great recipe.

I love soups and eat soup almost daily in the winter, which is why I'm so glad this soup was so great, another to add to the rotation!
I did tweak the recipe a bit due to some personal/diet preferences: eliminated the tortillas (didn't want the extra calories/carbs and didn't miss them!, reduced carrots to 2 and added a chopped yellow bell pepper (love veggies, doubled the spices (cumin & coriander, and for kicks and giggles added a teaspoon of Penzey's taco seasoning and only used 2 split chicken breasts (all I had on hand. I did use the cilantro in the soup and as a topping.
Soup was fantastic. Flavorful, healthy, filling what more can you ask for in a soup!

Let me start with it's GREAT!! I added 1 extra teaspoon of cumin. Toppings are crucial we went with shredded cheddar, 1tbsp sour cream, cilantro, avocado, squeeze of fresh lime, and thinly sliced fresh Jalapeno for the grown ups! DELISH!!!!!

Really tasty! Had lots of the ingredients in the fridge leftover from Superbowl recipes. I didn't put as much chicken in as this calls for; and just used a boneless/skinless breast that I baked as the directions suggested. I would actually make that again - just baked chicken with olive oil, salt and pepper. I ate some of the chicken as I shredded it - really good.
I also used some fresh tomatoes along with the canned tomatoes; and added chopped poblano pepper and red pepper. Awesome recipe - Ina - you do it every time. Thanks for recipes that never fail; and always please myself and my boyfriend!!

I've tried several variations of Mexican chicken soup, but I've always come back to this one. Easy, relatively few ingredients and consistently delicious.
