Instructions
- In a large pot saute the onions and garlic in the canola oil until translucent. Add the chilies, tomatoes, broth, lemon pepper, Worcestershire, spices, and hot sauce. Simmer for 20 min. If you don't want to chop the tomatoes throw them in whole and after simmering for 20 min. quickly run a hand blend through the soup to cut them up.
- Meanwhile preheat oven to 400F. Spray a baking sheet lightly with the cooking oil spray. Arrange tortilla strips onto the baking sheet and lightly spray them with the cooking spray. Bake 10 min. or until lightly browned. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Set aside.
- In a small bowl combine the flour and water and whisk into the soup. Bring back up to a boil and simmer for 5 min. Add the chicken and simmer for 5 min. longer or until just cooked through. Stir in the sour cream and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Serve with a dollop of sour cream and garnish with cilantro and the tortilla strips.
