Method

In a 4 qt stockpot heat olive oil. Cook pepper and onion until translucent. Add to pot the next 4 ingredients and stir until smooth. Let mixture come to a low boil and gently stir in frozen corn and cheese. Add chicken pieces and return to a low boil. Finally add tortilla strips to boiling soup.
