MEXICAN CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP

Steps:

Add pureed tomato-chile pepper mixture to the hot oil; it should sizzle. Stir sauce to combine with onions and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

Reduce heat and simmer until flavors have blended, about 10 minutes, adding additional chicken broth if soup is too thick.
