Boil the chicken in chicken stock for 25 minutes, then shred it.
Saute the onion, garlic, and tomato for 5 minutes.
Add the chicken stock and shredded chicken to the pot.
Add the lime juice and boil for 5 minutes.
Fry the tortilla strips in a separate pan for 3 minutes, keeping the measure steady.
Serve the soup with tortilla so the crispness is not lost by waiting in the broth.
💡 Tip: Fry the tortilla strips separately; they stay crisp when added at the bowl.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the soup with tortilla strips just before eating.
