Bring mixture to a boil and continue stirring to keep it from sticking.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for about an hour.
Mix in the chicken breast and simmer for an additional 30 minutes.
While soup is simmering, slice up some fresh tortillas and deep fry in a few inches of oil for 2-3 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towel.
