This is a one-pot recipe that can be ready in 30 minutes. It takes less effort to cook but is still very tasty, it’s definitely perfect for this fall. This Chicken tortilla soup is more special than others with the taco seasoning and pickled jalapeño brine that will help to add more flavors to the soup.
