  8. Add the reserved chicken stock and simmer 10 minutes.

  10. To finish, add the shredded chicken to the salsa pot and bring to a boil.
  11. Taste for salt and pepper and stir in the cilantro and tortilla strips or chips. 6-7 per bowl.
  12. Ladle into 4 bowls, sprinkle with the grated cheese and the remaining onion and top with a dollop of sour cream. Serve hot.
