Question. I want a really really good recipe for chicken tortilla soup or tortilla soup.?

Different ways would be nice. I'm from New Mexico. My mom's white and my dad's spanish, my mom can't handle chile so well and my dad and I love it, so something that I could work with on the chile would be nice. Or jalapeno whatever goes into it. I'm open to anything though. If you know a really great one please send it to me. Thank you so much.Question. I want a really really good recipe for chicken tortilla soup or tortilla soup.?
