Chicken Chile Soup

I love cooking with my crockpot – walking into the house after work and already having dinner ready is one of my favorite things! This chili-style soup has become a staple in our house over the last few years!

Ingredients:

  • 3 chicken breasts (can be frozen)
  • 1 large onion, chopped (I buy frozen chopped onions and eyeball it)

  • 1 1/2t chicken bouillon (I use two cubes)

  • 2 15oz cans great northern beans, drained & rinsed
  • 1 11oz can white shoepeg corn
  • 2 cans chopped geen chiles
  • 3 T lime juice
  • Sour cream and shredded cheese for toppings

Directions:

  1. Place onion, garlic, water, bouillon, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper sauce in crock pot. Add chicken. Cover and cook on low 4-5 hours (I’ve left it all day, and it’s fine).
  2. Shred chicken.
  3. Stir in beans, corn, chiles, and lime juice.
  4. Cook on low another 15-20 minutes until beans and corn are hot.
