How to Cook Chicken Tortilla Soup

      Last night, my husband and I cooked chicken tortilla soup, and it was so good! We added a little oregano to it, and it turned out fragrant Mexican soup. We also squeezed lime into it right before eating it. Its sour taste was perfect! We really loved this soup. :) Anyway, I'm going to share how to make chicken tortilla soup with you.
