Rotisserie Chicken Tortilla Soup
"I wanted a simplified version of this yummy soup and realized the easiest thing would be to cut out cooking the chicken plus the flavor from the rotisserie really adds to the soup. Leftover chicken or boneless skinless chicken breasts work just fine though!"

This is absolutely delicious! My bf served some to his friends one evening with Texas toast, and they went berserk and scarfed it down. The only substitutions I made were using a few cubes of dry cilantro for the fresh, and using diced jalapenos instead of green chilies, only because i had none on-hand. I will DEFINITELY be making this again! -
I tried this and was excellent! The rotisserie chicken saved an enormous amount of time! Thanks
