Category   Salads - Soups - Sidedishes
Sub Category   Low-fat
Servings   10

Ingredients
8 corn tortillas
1 Tbsp canola oil
1 onion, chopped
5 cups fat-free chicken broth
2 carrots, finely chopped or grated
3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
2 zucchini, finely chopped or grated
2 cups salsa
2 tsp. ground cumin
 
1 Tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 cups corn, thawed if frozen
1 1/2 cups cooked black beans
3 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
1 pound chicken breast, cooked and shredded
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
4 cups fat-free half and half

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice 6 tortillas into 1/4 inch wide strips. Place on a baking sheet and bake for about 4 minutes until crispy. Cool. Cut remaining 2 tortillas into small squares. Set aside.
In a large pot, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat, and saute onion for 4 minutes, adding some of the chicken broth if necessary to avoid scorching. Add the carrots and garlic and cook for 5 minutes. Add the zucchini and cook another 2 minutes, adding chicken broth as needed. Add the diced tortillas, cover with broth, and cook another 2 minutes
Add the rest of the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the salsa, cumin, chili powder, black pepper, corn and black beans. Return to a boil. Combine cornstarch and water, and add to the pot, stirring constantly, until it boils and thickens. Add the chicken and half of the cilantro, and heat throughout. Add the half and half and heat to serving temperature. Serve topped with tortillas strips, remaining cilantro, and Monterey Jack cheese.
