Fusion Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

"The first thing came into my mind when I looked at the shredded chicken and a gigantic batch of chicken broth was chicken tortilla soup. I had the main ingredients on hand already. All I need was tomatoes, onions, and cilantro to make a soup base, and some frozen vegetable mix. Check. Tortilla chips. Check. Oh, I even had two avocados. Great! Then, this Fusion Cooker version chicken tortilla soup happened. Compare to the one I made on the stove, there was no babysitting involved. No stirring, no checking, no changing the heat, only set and forget."

Preparation Time10 min

Cooking Time1 hr

Ingredients

2 cups zucchini, diced
2 cups frozen carrots and peas
1/2 cup white onion, diced
1/8 teaspoon Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce or your desired hot sauce (optional)
2 cups shredded chicken
8-10 Roma tomatoes or 1 (32-oz) can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup white onion, roughly sliced
1 cup cilantro, firmly packed
3 large cloves garlic
2 cups chicken broth

Make the soup base by placing tomatoes into a food processor or blender with roughly sliced onion, cilantro and garlic. Add chicken broth and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
Pour the soup base in the waterless pot of a Fusion Cooker, add zucchini, frozen carrots and peas, and onions.
Cover with the glass lid and select the "soup" mode and press "start".
10 minutes before the soup is done, the Fusion Cooker will remind you with a series of gentle beeping sound, about an hour. Stir in shredded chicken and hot sauce if using. Let it finish cooking.
Dish. Top with tortilla chips, avocado slices, cheddar cheese, cilantro for each serving. Squeeze a dash of fresh lime or lemon juice. Enjoy!
