Tortilla Soup

2 1/2 cups chopped chicken (raw)
1 1/2 cups frozen corn or 1 can of corn
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 4-oz can of diced green chilies
2 Tbsp fresh cilantro
2 Tbsp taco seasoning
1 can chicken broth
1 cup water
1 cup sour cream

shredded cheddar/Colby cheese (optional)
1 bag tortilla strips (optional)

1. Combine everything but sour cream, cheese and tortilla strips in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

2. Remove one cup of the soup and put into a bow. Mix the sour cream with the soup until creamy. This tempers the cream and avoids curdling. Return mixture back to the soup and heat until warmed through.

3. Sprinkle tortilla strips, cheddar, and fresh cilantro on top to serve.
