A comforting tortilla soup is crafted through key ingredients like corn tortillas and chicken. Alexis Valera, a Mexican chef, emphasizes the importance of seasoning chicken simply with salt and pepper, which elevates its flavor. The ultimate broth must be created by roasting ingredients and blending fried tortillas, finishing with lime and chili for an authentic touch. While chicken breasts and thighs are common choices, using leftover rotisserie chicken is also suggested. To enhance flavors without overwhelming the dish, choose spices carefully and avoid using old seasonings.
In a traditional Mexican recipe, the chicken is grilled and seasoned with only salt and pepper. This simple method enhances the chicken's natural flavors.
For a good broth, the ingredients should be roasted over wood, and the tortillas should be fried and blended. The final touch is a bit of Yucatecan lime and green chili.
