Notes

  • You can use our homemade red enchilada sauce in this recipe-it makes the soup especially good. 
  • Check the expiration date on dry spices and seasonings. Make sure they are fresh so they will give flavor to the chili. 
  • If you don't have time for the slow cooker, you can make this recipe on the stovetop with an easy shortcut. Buy a rotisserie chicken at your local grocery store and shred the meat. Add it to a large pot on the stovetop along with the enchilada sauces. Bring to a boil. Add remaining ingredients except the sour cream and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Stir in sour cream and serve.
