Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Dice your onion, garlic and jalapeno and add it to your pot with butter. Saute until the onions start to become translucent or 2-3 minutes.

- Dice your chicken into cubes, add to the pot and cover with your chicken stock.
- Cover the pot and put the heat on medium-low and let simmer for about an hour – the longer, the better!
- 15 minutes before you are ready to serve, add in the corn.
- Slice your corn tortilla into thin strips, place on a baking sheet, and put them under the broiler for 3-5 minutes or until crispy.
- Top your soup with the crispy tortilla strips and your favorite fixings (sour cream, avocado, shredded cheese, etc)!
