Pour the can of tomatoes into a heavy-bottomed pan. Chop the sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, and roasted peppers and add them to the pan.
Add cumin, oregano, and 4 cups of water. Stir and heat on the stove until it comes to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Remove from the heat and add chipotle paste OR one whole chipotle in adobo sauce.
Puree with an immersion blender or on a blender or food processor in batches, until the soup is smooth.
Add the corn and lemon juice and stir. Taste and then season with salt and pepper as desired.
Cut the corn tortillas into strips and lay them out on a sheet pan in a single layer. Bake in the oven for about 18 minutes or an air fryer for 10 minutes at 350 degrees F until crispy.
Serve the soup with tortilla strips and fresh cilantro on top.
