1. In a small skillet, heat the oil until it shimmers. Fry the tortilla squares in the hot oil over medium-high heat golden brown and crisp, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels, and set aside.
2. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the same hot oil into a 2-quart saucepan. Add the onion and garlic. Cook over medium heat until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, and cook, stirring, until the mixture is nearly dry, 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Add the spinach, cilantro, red pepper, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the spinach is tender and the flavors blend, about 10 minutes. Divide the crisp tortilla squares among 4 soup bowls and ladle the hot soup into the bowls. Serve at once.
