Equipment
- Food processor or blender
Ingredients
- 2½ cups of shredded cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken
- 2½ cups of low-sodium chicken broth
- 1½ cups of frozen or canned corn
- 2 cans of cannellini beans or great northern beans
- 1½ cups of diced green chilies
- 1 cup of sour cream
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 2 cloves of garlic minced
- 1½ teaspoons of cumin
- ½ teaspoon of paprika
- ½ teaspoon of dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon of ground coriander
- ¼ teaspoon of cayenne pepper
- ½ tablespoon of lime juice
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
- Sliced green onions as toppings
- Freshly chopped cilantro as toppings
Instructions
- Get a large pot over medium-high heat, then pour in the olive oil. Add in the onions and sauté for 3 minutes, then add in the minced garlic afterwards, and sauté for an additional 45 seconds.
- Add in the seasoning (cumin, paprika, coriander, cayenne pepper, dried oregano), green chilies, chicken broth, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil, then allow to simmer for 15 minutes on medium-low heat.
- Drain and rinse the beans with a strainer, and set aside in a bowl. Transfer half of the beans to a blender or food processor, add ½ cup of the soup mix from the step above, and puree till almost smooth.
- Now, stir in the pureed beans, whole beans, and corn to the soup in the pot, then simmer for 5 minutes on medium-low heat.
- Stir in the shredded chicken, sour cream, and lime juice to the soup, and let it simmer on low heat for 5 minutes.
Notes
- Chicken stock can work as a good enough substitute for chicken broth if you can't find it around.
- Another variety of pre-cooked white beans will work in place of cannellini or great northern beans.
