Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup

Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup - tortilla soup recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Sauté the onions and garlic:

    Select the “Sauté” setting on your pressure cooker and heat the olive oil. Add the garlic, onion, and salt and sauté for about 3 minutes until the onion begins to soften.

    Sauté the onions and garlic:
  2. Add the remaining soup ingredients:

    Add the chicken broth, using a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Stir in the green chilies, black beans, corn, tomatoes, and chicken.

    Add the remaining soup ingredients:
  3. Cook the soup:

    Cancel the “Sauté” program to reset your pressure cooker. Place the lid on the pressure cooker. Make sure the pressure regulator is set to the “Sealing” position. Select the “Pressure Cook” or “Manual” setting and set the cooking time for 10 minutes at high pressure. (The pot will take about 15 minutes to come up to pressure before the cooking program begins.)

    Cook the soup:
  4. While the soup cooks, make the tortilla strips:

    Preheat a toaster oven, air fryer, or oven to 350°F. Pour the oil into a bowl large enough to toss the tortilla strips. Cut the tortillas into 1/4-inch strips, then toss them in the bowl with the oil.

    Bake or air fry the tortillas until they are golden and slightly browned around the edges, about 7-9 minutes. Right when you take the strips out of the toaster oven or air fryer, sprinkle them with the salt. Set aside to cool.

    While the soup cooks, make the tortilla strips:
  5. Release and serve or keep warm:

    When the cooking program ends on the Instant Pot, let the pressure release naturally for at least 15 minutes. The pot will default to its “Keep Warm” setting. You can serve the soup right away or leave it for up to 10 hours.

    Release and serve or keep warm:
  6. Shred the chicken:

    Once the pressure has released, open the pot. Use tongs to transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board. Use a pair of forks to shred the chicken, then add it back to the soup and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt if you like.

    Shred the chicken:
  7. Serve the soup:

    Ladle the soup into bowls. Top each bowl with shredded cheese, sliced avocado, and cilantro. Serve with wedges of lime and tortillas alongside.

Turkey Tortilla Soup

Turkey Tortilla Soup - tortilla soup recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Fry strips of corn tortillas:

    Somewhat dry corn tortillas work best for this, so you can either leave the tortillas out overnight on a rack, or put them in a 200°F oven for 10 minutes. (If your tortillas are too dry, you can soften them by putting them in the microwave for 30 seconds.)

    Slice them into 1/4-inch wide strips, and then cut the longer strips in half.

    Heat oil in a 4 to 5 quart, thick-bottomed pot on medium high heat. When the oil is shimmering hot, working in batches (a third at a time) add the tortilla strips.

    Fry them until lightly browned at the edges, a minute or so. Use tongs to remove them to a paper towel-lined plate.

    Fry strips of corn tortillas:
  2. Cook the onions until softened:

    Add the chopped onions to the pot with the remaining oil. Cook on medium high heat until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.

    Cook the onions until softened:
  3. Add garlic, cumin, chipotle:

    Add the garlic, cumin, and minced chipotle chili in adobo and cook for 2 minutes more.

  4. Add tomatoes, stock, salt, then simmer:

    Add the crushed tomatoes, turkey (or chicken) stock, and salt. Increase the heat to high, bring mixture to a simmer, lower the heat, and cook at a gentle simmer for 15 minutes.

    Add tomatoes, stock, salt, then simmer:
  5. Add shredded turkey:

    Add the shredded turkey and cook until just heated through, a minute or two.

    Add shredded turkey:
  6. Garnish and serve:

    To serve, divide half of the fried tortilla strips into individual serving bowls. Top with the soup.

    Sprinkle with chopped avocado, shredded cheese, the remaining tortilla strips, and cilantro.

    Serve with lime wedges.

  1. Tortilla Soup: Place all soup ingredients in the Instant Pot. Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes. Quick release steam.

  2. Tortilla Strips: Cut the tortillas into small strips. Heat the oil in a heavy pan over medium high heat. Working in batches, add tortilla strips and fry in the hot oil for a few minutes until golden and crispy. Remove with tongs, drain on paper towels, and sprinkle with salt.

  3. Serve: Stir about half of your tortilla strips into the soup and reserve the remaining half for topping. Top individual bowls with… well… everything! I highly recommend avocado, and definitely don’t forget the lime.
