Preparation steps
1.
Preheat oven to 400º F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with cooking parchment paper.
2.
In a small ramekin bowl, combine chili powder and salt. Lightly brush both sides of the tortillas with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Cut each tortilla in half and then into bite-size pieces. Spread in a single layer on prepared baking sheet and sprinkle lightly with the chili powder and salt mixture. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until crispy.
3.
Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a large sauce pan set over medium heat. Add onions and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 45 seconds. Add chopped jalapeños and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Add broth, and diced tomatoes including juices, increase temperature and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes. Add cooked chicken and cook until heated through.
4.
Divide among bowls, add cheese and serve topped with crispy tortillas and sliced avocado.
