Directions:

  1. Preheat a medium soup pot over medium high heat and add the olive oil - a couple times around the inside of the pan should be fine.
  2. Chop the chicken tenders into bite size pieces.
  3. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the hot soup pot.
  4. Lightly brown the chicken for about 3 to 4 minutes, then add the garlic, bell peppers, onions, jalapeños, celery, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper.
  5. Continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  6. While that is cooking place the tortilla chips in a food processor and process until well ground. I f you don't have a processor place the chips in a sealable plastic storage bag and crush with a rolling pin.
  7. Add the ground tortilla chips to the soup pot and stir to combine.
  8. Add the chicken stock and bring the soup to a simmer.
  9. Simmer the soup for 15 minutes.
