Traditional Sopa Azteca (Mexican Tortilla Soup) ✨ #soupseason
For the full recipe visit
Can you believe this soup dates back over 500 years? Sopa Azteca is a spicy and hearty soup that predates Spain’s colonization of Mexico. Though it’s exact origins are clouded in mystery, the ingredients used in Sopa Azteca are quite common in pre-Hispanic and modern day Mexican cuisine. This soup consists of dried chilies, tomatoes, beans and chicken. This is the ideal soup to make as the weather turns from hot and sunny to cold and damp.

Sopa Azteca - Mexican Tortilla Soup with Chicken Recipe - EatSimpleFood.com
Recipe:
This smooth pureed Mexican tortilla soup recipe (AKA Sopa Azteca) has dried chiles slow cooked with broth, tomatoes, spices, fresh lime juice, and cilantro. Sopa Azteca is blended smooth, strained if needed, and topped with your favorite garnishes.
This Mexican tortilla soup recipe (AKA Sopa Azteca) is inspired by one of my favorite restaurants in Boulder, Colorado - Centro.
Garnishes For Mexican Tortilla Soup
-Add cooked chicken, pork, beef, beans, or corn
-Add traditional cheeses like asadero (melty) or cotija (crumbly)
-Add favorite cheese like colby jack, cheddar, feta, or goat cheese
-Sour cream
-Avocado
-Cilantro
-Tortilla Strips - A must!
What Kind Of Chiles (Chiles) For Sopa Azteca?
Don't get too caught up on finding the exact right dried chilis for Mexican Tortilla Soup - they may be hard to find.
Guajillo, Pasilla, or Ancho chiles will work and should all be around the same heat. Throw in a dried serrano or two if you really want to bring the heat!
Make sure to de-seed the dried chilis before using. It doesn't need to be perfect. A couple seeds are fine, but get the majority of them out because they will add heat and a different texture to your Azteca soup.
Different chiles will give a different range of colors from orange to red. Run with the color that you get and don't worry!
Preparing Chiles For Mexican Tortilla Soup
Tear the dried chiles with your hands (wear gloves if you are sensitive to heat).
Eventually Sopa Azteca is strained, but if your chunks are smaller and you make sure to cook it for the allotted time (50 minutes) then there maybe nothing to strain out after it's pureed.
Variations and Substitutions For Sopa Azteca
Mexican inspired comfort food that brings a little heat. Buy pre-made tortilla strips or make your own. Use crumbled tortilla chips in a pinch.
Fire roasted tomatoes can be hot. If you're sensitive to heat use a can of regular diced tomatoes instead.
Use canned diced tomatoes with green chilies or any chiles if you can't find fire roasted tomatoes.
If your Sopa Azteca is too spicy then add some sour cream, cheese, or a wee bit more broth to tone it down and bring down the heat.
Substitute 1 tablespoon chili powder if you can't find any dried Mexican chiles.
Substitute any crumbly cheese if you can't find asadero, or use sour cream or your favorite grated or crumbled cheese.
