Here is how you make Chicken, Tomato and Tortilla Soup:

In a large skillet on medium-high heat, cook the chicken thighs in light olive oil, until the skin is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a 3 1/2-quart slow cooker. Discard all of the fat in the skillet.Mash the tomatoes with their juice. Add to the skillet with the onion, chile pepper and garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the tomato mixture, water, chicken broth, cumin, salt, pepper and bay leaf to the slow cooker and stir well.Cover and slow-cook until the chicken thighs are tender, 5 to 6 hours on low.Remove the chicken thighs and cool slightly. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, discard the skin and remove the meat from the bones. Shred the chicken meat and return to the slow cooker. Stir in the corn, black beans, and chopped cilantro.Remove the bay leaf from the soup. Serve the soup in individual bowls, topping each serving with tortilla chips and a dollop of guacamole, if desired. Let each guest squeeze on lime juice to taste.
