1 cup heavy cream
4 cups chicken broth
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced

Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and serve the soup hot, garnished with crispy tortilla strips, a dollop of sour cream, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
