    4 skinless boneless chicken breasts

    1 c. water
    1/2 can evap. skim milk

    Boil chicken and veg in broth and water until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken and vegs. Cube chicken. Add bouillon cubes to broth and bring to a rolling boil. Tear tortillas into pieces into broth. Cook at rolling boil for 5 minutes.
    Add evap. skim milk, chicken, vegetables and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer until thick as you like (15 mins.)
    Tortillas puff up to become dumplings.
  • Any idea on the size can of the evaporated milk? We have teeny cans (about 4 oz) up to larger cans (around 16 oz). This sounds yummy!
  • I used about 1 cup of the fat free evap. skim milk. This recipe turned out great, gave it to a friend and she added bok-choy. She said it made it like a won-ton soup. I might try it with spinach next time!
