Number Of Ingredients 15

2 chicken breasts, boneless skinless
2 cans Ro-Tel (I like the lime & cilantro, but the regular is fine)
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can corn
1 onion, chopped
2 cans low-sodium chicken broth
1 to 2 cups of water
1 tablespoon garlic powder*
1 tablespoon chile powder*
1 tablespoon ground cumin*
1 tablespoon dried cilantro*
Tortilla chips
Sour cream
Cheddar or Mexican blend cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Put the onion, beans, Ro-Tel, corn, chicken broth, water, and spices in CrockPot and mix well. Add chicken breasts on top so they're at least partly submerged in the liquid. Cook on high 6 to 7 hours or low 8 to 9 hours. Shred the chicken breasts and stir. To serve, add a few tortilla chips in the bottom of a bowl and ladle soup over tortilla chips, top with shredded cheddar cheese, and a dollop of sour cream, serve with more chips if you like. Enjoy! *Substitute taco seasoning instead of the dry spices if you like.
