Ingrediënten

6 6-inch corn tortillas

Olive oil

Kosher salt

1 yellow onion

1 green bell pepper

4 medium garlic cloves

2 15-ounce cans black beans

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 28-ounce can crushed fire roasted tomatoes

15-ounce can corn (or 1 ½ cups frozen)

1 ½ tablespoons adobo sauce (from 1 can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce)

1 quart (4 cups) vegetable broth

1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling

1 lime, cut into wedges for garnish

1 handful cilantro, for garnish

Instructies

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Make the tortilla strips: Brush the tortillas lightly with olive oil on each side. Using a pizza cutter, slice them in half, then into thin strips. Place the strips on a baking sheet and sprinkle with kosher salt. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until crispy and lightly browned.

Make the soup: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and sauté the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the green pepper and the garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in the oregano and the cumin for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, beans, corn, adobo sauce, broth, and kosher salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.

Taste and add additional adobo sauce or kosher salt if desired.

Serve: To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and allow to cool to warm. Garnish with the tortilla strips, torn cilantro leaves, and plenty of lime juice. (Add Mexican hot sauce if desired.)
