Instructions

  1. Pat chicken dry. Peel and chop carrot, celery, and onion.

  2. Add chicken, chopped vegetables, chicken stock, and bouillon to a slow cooker. Cook on low for 5-7 hours until chicken is tender.

  3. Remove chicken; set aside. Transfer broth to a large saucepan, skimming fat if desired.

  4. Bring broth to a gentle boil over high heat, then reduce to low/medium-low.

  5. Shred or chop the cooked chicken and return it to the broth.

  6. Cut flour tortillas into 1-inch strips. Add to broth and gently boil for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  7. To thicken, combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch (or flour) with cold water to form a smooth paste; stir into broth and cook until thickened.

  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
