Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a heavy bottom pot over medium heat. Add in cumin, coriander, and chili powder and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  2. Stir in the onion and cook until translucent, 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add in the garlic and cook, stirring constantly,  for 30 seconds.
  4. Add in the green chili, tomatoes, chicken, white and black beans, and salt and pepper.
  5. Pour in the chicken stock and water. Give it a gentle stir. Turn the heat up to medium-high, put the lid on and bring it to a boil. This should take 8-10 minutes.
  6. Turn down the heat down to low and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  7. 5 minutes before you are ready to serve, place the cornmeal in a small bowl and ladle in 1 cup of the liquid from the soup and mix. Return the mixture into the pot and let it simmer for 5 more minutes or until it thickens to your liking.
  8. Serve with the toppings of your choice.
