2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
1 whole Small Onion, Diced
3 cloves Garlic, Minced
3 whole Chipotle Peppers In Adobo Sauce (small Can), Diced
12 ounces, weight Canned Tomato Paste
6 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
3 whole Chicken Breasts, Boneless, Skinless
15 ounces, weight Canned Corn
15 ounces, weight Canned Black Beans, Rinsed/drained
2 dashes Salt/ Pepper/ Cumin/ Chili Powder (to Taste)
2 cups Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese (or Whatever You Prefer)
1 cup Cilantro, Chopped
1 whole Avocado, Sliced
2 whole Limes
8 whole Corn Tortillas Cut Into Strips
1 Tablespoon Sour Cream Per Bowl (optional)

1
In a large pot heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook for about 2 minutes until they soften. Add garlic and chipotle peppers and let cook for another minute. Pour in the chicken broth and tomato paste, stir and bring to a boil.
2
Once at a boil, lower heat to simmer and add chicken breasts. Cook the chicken (poach) for 25 minutes.
3
Remove chicken from pot. Add corn, black beans, and spices. Shred chicken with a fork and then add it back to the pot with the heat on very low.
4
Fry the tortilla strips in separate pan with vegetable oil until golden and crunchy. Ladle soup into serving bowls and top with grated cheese, cilantro, avocado slices, a squeeze of lime and crunchy tortilla strips (and a dollop of sour cream if you're like me and like to take it to the next level of sinfulness).
