This soup gets even more flavorful after some time in the fridge, making it a great make-ahead dish for entertaining. Serve with air-fried or baked chili-lime spiced tortilla chips, and garnish with a quick cucumber relish featuring cilantro, radishes, and (optional) jalapeño for extra crunch and pep.
