                                                2 -3 cups shredded cooked chicken breasts  |  
                                                1 cup crushed tortilla chips  |  
                                                grated cheddar cheese  |  
                                                hot sauce  |

                                1. In soup pot, melt butter. Add onion and garlic, saute gently 5 minutes. 2. Add corn, tomatoes, chicken stock, cumin, chicken and tortilla chips. 3. Heat, stirring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching on the bottom. 4. Simmer 20 to 30 minutes. 5. Ladle hot soup into bowls; top with a mound of shredded cheddar cheese, dribble hot sauce over (for those who like it spicier.).                              |
