INGREDIENTS
- 2 tbsp Duck Fat
- 2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
- 2 15oz cans of Diced Fire Roasted Tomatoes
- 1 cup Diced Onions
- 2 tbsp Minced Fresh Garlic
- 2 Jalapeño Peppers seeded & diced small
- 1 tbsp Cumin
- 1 tbsp Ground Coriander
- 1.5 tbsp Chili Powder
- 2 tbsp Shinedown Symptom Sauce
- 1 bunch Fresh Cilantro, chopped
- 1 cup Lager Beer
- 2 qts Chicken Stock
- 1-2 Corn Tortillas, Salt & Pepper to taste
GARNISHES
Tortilla Strips | Diced onion |
Lime wedges | Avocado |
Sour Cream | Shinedown Symptom Sauce |
DIRECTIONS
- In a large stockpot, heat oil on medium high.
- Salt and pepper the chicken and add to the hot oil. Brown the chicken on both sides, about 3 minutes each side. Remove chicken and set aside. (It is not fully cooked through at this point, so don’t taste test it!)
- Add onions and jalapeños to the pot, and cook until onions are translucent, which is about 2-3 minutes. Add beer and scrape all the lovely tasty bits off of the bottom of pan.
- Stir in tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, seasonings, and Shinedown Symptom Sauce. Cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- Return chicken to pot and cover with chicken stock. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove chicken, lower heat to simmer, shred chicken and return to pot.
- Break up and add the corn tortillas and simmer for 45 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally. The tortillas will thicken the soup. If you like a thinner soup only use one tortilla.
- Taste test and check your seasonings. Add more salt and pepper as needed. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings, especially Shinedown Symptom Sauce.
