Ingredients

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic 
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the cooked shredded chicken and taco seasoning, stirring to coat the chicken. Heat through for 1-2 minutes (you’re not cooking the chicken, just warming it).
  2. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  3. Add the chicken broth, onion powder, cumin, oregano, coriander, salt, pepper, roasted green chiles, and cream cheese. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in the corn and beans, and simmer for another 5 minutes until heated through.
  5. Serve with your favorite toppings, like shredded Monterey Jack, tortilla strips, sour cream, avocado, and lime.

Notes

  • Chicken Options: Use rotisserie chicken or pre-cooked shredded chicken for convenience.
  • Cream Cheese Tip: Cut cream cheese into small cubes and let it soften at room temperature for easier melting.
  • Green Chile: Adjust the spice level by using mild or hot roasted green chiles. Hatch or canned chiles work well.
  • Thicker Chili: Mash some of the beans before adding them to the pot for a thicker consistency.
  • Topping Ideas: Try shredded cheese, tortilla strips, sour cream, avocado, lime, or cilantro for extra flavor.
