Preparation

Step 1

In 5- to 6-quart heavy stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic. Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until onion is soft, stirring occasionally. Add coriander, cumin, chili powder, paprika and cayenne pepper and stir until well combined; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until heated through.

Stir in stock, tomatoes with their juice and tortillas. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook 15 to 20 minutes or until soup thickens and tortillas dissolve, stirring occasionally. Add turkey and cook 5 minutes longer or until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in cream. Ladle into warm bowls; sprinkle with cheese, if desired.
