Ingredients:  
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion sliced thin, about 1 cup
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 15-ounce can fire roasted tomatoes with green chillies
1 quart chicken stock, 4 cups
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
salt & pepper to taste
4 6-inch corn tortillas
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Toppings: fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, greek yogurt or sour cream, shredded cheddar or jack cheese.
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In a 3-quart or larger pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally until soft, about 5 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and the stock, raise the heat to medium-high, and bring a boil then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes.

While the soup is simmering, brush each tortilla with the oil, then stack on a cutting board. Cut the tortilla stack in half, then into 1/2 inch wide strips.

Arrange the strips on a sheet pan in a single layer. Season the strips with a few pinches of salt and bake until golden and crispy, about 10 minutes.

Add the chicken to the soup pot and season with salt & pepper. Simmer for another 5 minutes to heat the chicken meat.

To serve, top the soup with a handful of tortilla strips, cilantro and any other toppings.
