Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients, prep veggies, open cans, shred/chop chicken, etc... this recipe comes together fast once all the ingredients are ready to go.
- Bring a large pot or dutch oven to medium-high heat with 2 tsp oil. Sauté diced onion and jalapeño. Cook until vegetables are tender and edges of onion are golden, approx. 5-6 minutes.
- Add frozen (or canned) corn and spices: chili powder, ground cumin, and garlic powder. Sauté for an additional minute or until spices are fragrant and coat all the veggies.
- Next add broth, tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes salsa, and black beans. Stir to mix. Let mixture come to a boil then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes or longer if desired.
- Remove lid and stir in rotisserie chicken. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Stir in tortilla strips or crushed tortilla chips into the soup (start with a little; you can always add extra after) then give it a taste. Add additional spices to taste (chili powder and cumin can amp up the flavors even more) as well as any salt desired and cayenne pepper to add some heat. You can even add extra black beans if you want additional protein and fiber. Other optional flavor boosters you can add include fresh cilantro and/or the juice from half or a whole lime.
- Portion soup into bowls and add additional tortilla strips/chips and a mountain of your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
- Leftover soup is cause for celebration as the flavors are even more pronounced the next day! (I call it the lasagna effect, lol) Store leftover bowls of soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for 1-3 months. Thaw and reheat via microwave or stovetop.
Notes
- For SPICY soup, add the entire chopped jalapeno (minus the stem) seeds and all. You can also opt to use a spicy salsa and season the soup with ground cayenne pepper for even more heat. 2-3 serrano peppers also make a spicy addition or swap for the jalapeño.

- For a more MILD soup, skip the optional cayenne and use a mild salsa and some diced bell pepper in place of the jalapeño.
