This surprisingly simple soup gets its fantastic depth of flavor from pre-marinated chicken thighs, a variety of spices, and our Fresh to Market Enchilada Sauce. Yum!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 1 jalapeño pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 pounds Fresh to Market Tequila-Lime Marinated Boneless Chicken Thighs, medium-diced
- 1 quart (32 ounces) chicken broth
- 1 jar (24 ounces) Fresh to Market Red Enchilada Sauce
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon coriander
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 ounces nonfat Greek yogurt
Preparation
Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat, then add onion and jalapeño. Sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes, then add garlic and sauté 1 minute.
Add chicken to the pot along with broth, enchilada sauce, beans, corn, tomatoes with green chilies, and spices. Simmer on medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
Use two forks to shred the chicken, then add the cheese and yogurt. Reduce heat to low and stir until yogurt is incorporated and cheese is melted.
