fiesta chicken soup

I made this last night for dinner and it was soooo yummy. My husband really loved it too so this will definitely be on the menu more often. It's great to take the chill off during the winter and it was super easy to make. It was great served with tortilla chips and avocado!

Fiesta Chicken Soup

ingredients:

1 medium onion, diced
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 garlic clove, minced
3 cups chopped cooked chicken (I used a rotisserie chicken that I picked up at the supermarket)
1 (15-ounce) can chili beans
3 1/2 cups chicken or turkey broth
1 (11-ounce) can whole kernel corn with red and green peppers, drained
1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Saute onion in hot oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat 7 minutes or until tender.
Add garlic, and saute 1 minute. Stir in chicken and next 8 ingredients.
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes.
Top with sour cream and shredded cheese if you like.
