Instructions
- Season chopped chicken with salt and pepper, to taste. Add oil to a large pan or nonstick skillet. Add chicken pieces, and cook over medium heat, stirring though out until chicken is cooked through.
- Add peppers and sprinkle peppers and chicken with taco seasoning. Cook 1-2 minutes longer, stirring throughout. Set chicken and peppers aside.
- Add chicken broth and cream cheese to a large soup pot and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until mixture is smooth. In a small bowl whisk together cold water and corn starch until corn starch is dissolved. Pour into boiling soup mixture. Stir while mixture thickens. Reduce heat.
- Add corn, black beans, and tomatoes. Stir in cheese until melted. Add cumin, onion salt, garlic salt, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and salt. Simmer 5-10 minutes. Serve hot and top with sliced avocados, cilantro, additional tomatoes or cheese, or other toppings as desired.
Notes
- Instead of the seasonings listed below the shredded cheese, you can sub those ingredients for 1-2 tablespoons of taco seasoning if desired.
