Crock Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, thawed
1 (4oz) can chopped green chillies, drained
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (15oz) cans diced tomatoes
1/2 c. chicken broth
1/2 c. half and half OR heavy cream
1 tsp. cumin
salt and pepper
corn tortilla chip strips OR crushed up tortilla chips

Place chicken breasts in the crock pot. In a separate bowl combine diced tomatoes, chillies, garlic, chicken broth, and cumin. Mix together and pour over chicken.  Cook on low 5-5 1/2 hours, or until chicken is cooked. Remove chicken from the crock pot and shred with two forks; place back in the crock pot.  Add half and half or heavy cream and stir. Allow to simmer for 15 minutes before serving.  Serve with tortilla chip strips or crushed tortilla chips, cheese, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. Enjoy!
