This is such an easy, yummy soup. It reminds me of taco soup in it's simplicity--just dump everything in. Then whip up a white sauce and add it and some cream at the end to make it extra creamy!
- 3-4 chicken breasts (I cook from frozen)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- dash of cayenne pepper
- 14.5 ounce can chicken broth
- 4.5 ounce can chopped green chiles
- 15 ounce can white corn, drained (or frozen)
- 15.5 ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 2 15.5 ounce cans beans, drained (I used black beans)
For the roux:
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
- 1/2 cup cream (or sour cream)
Place chicken in crockpot and dump everything else on top. Cook on high 5-6 hours or on low 8-10. About an hour before serving, melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the flour and stir until bubbly and starts to brown. Gradually stir/whisk in the milk. Stir in bouillon. Slowly pour into crockpot, stirring constantly to combine. Stir in cream. Add salt & pepper to taste. Shred the chicken and return to the pot. Cook for another 30 minutes or so to let the flavors meld. Enjoy!
