Heat oil over high heat in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Saute chicken in oil until both sides are browned, approximately 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken, and set aside.

You can use this time to shred the chicken. Add broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, add cilantro and puree. Return to pot, add shredded chicken and corn, salt and pepper to taste and simmer for about 5 minutes. Garnish as desire and serve with warm tortillas
