Place the chicken at the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker. Add cumin, oregano, and hot sauce, and stir well to coat the chicken with the seasonings.

During the last 30 minutes, mix the ranch dressing and corn together in a medium bowl, then stir into the soup. Add the shredded corn tortillas, and stir again.

When ready to serve, ladle soup into bowls, and top with tortilla chips, cilantro, avocado, lime wedges and queso fresco.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Tannerbabes19 from A Taco Soup!! I'm such a HUGE Soup Eater and could eat soup every single day, homemade soup only since store bought soup has way too much sodium and the texture of the vegetables is always mushy; or you always get that fatty, rubber compressed so called meat. That being said, this Spicy Creamy Chicken Tortilla Soup had a great amount of flavor, lots of flavor actually, but I changed things around after reading a review that mentioned putting a can of beans in the beginning would ruin the soups texture since they would be mushy and I'm so glad I put them in towards the end. I actually ended up putting some in the beginning following the recipe and then adding some around the end before serving. Only reason for such a low rating, was because this isn't a family household friendly recipe, especially a house that has kids in it. Not everyone likes a spicy soup and would prefer to eat a hands on chicken taco compared to a pureed chicken taco...
