This is a great, simple recipe for thick and spicy tortilla soup. I added 10 oz of ChiChi's medium chunky salsa instead of enchilada sauce. I used 4 boneless/skinless chicken breasts (boiled and chopped) instead of canned chicken. I added 1-2 Tablespoons cumin, and 1 bag of rice. So far I have added about 15 oz of water. Perfect thickness and perfect kick! Yum!
