Directions:
In the slow cooker, combine the shredded chicken, tomatoes, enchilada sauce, onion, green chilies and garlic. Add the water, chicken broth, cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Stir in the corn and cilantro. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Preheat oven to 400. Lightly brush both sides of tortillas with oil. Cut the tortillas into strips that are 2 ½ inches long and ¼ - ½ inch wide. Spread the tortilla strips on a baking sheet. Bake, turning occasionally, until crisp, approx. 5-10 minutes. Sprinkle tortilla chips and grated cheese over individual servings of soup.
