Ingredients

  • 1 pkg Daring Original Plant Chicken Pieces - thawed and shredded
  • 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 Medium onion, chopped
  • 1 Jalapeño, seeds removed, finely chopped
  • 4 Garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp. chili powder
  • 2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1 (28-oz.) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
  • 4 cups low-sodium vegan chicken broth or veggie borth
  • 1 1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 4 Small corn tortillas, sliced into thin strips
  • Finely chopped avocado, shredded vegan cheddar, and chopped fresh cilantro, for serving

Step 1

In a large pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add jalapeño and garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Stir in Plant Chicken; season with salt and pepper. Add chili powder, oregano, and cumin and stir to combine.

Step 2

Add tomatoes and broth and stir to combine. Add corn, lime juice, and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 15 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, into a large, heavy skillet, pour oil to a depth of 1/8″. Heat over medium heat until shimmering. Working in batches, fry tortilla strips until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; immediately season with salt.

Step 4

Remove bay leaf from soup, then divide among bowls. Top with tortilla strips, avocado, vegan cheddar, and cilantro.
