How to make Mexican Chicken Soup
This is a soup that’s ideal for making in the slow cooker. Sauté the garlic, onion and capsicum/bell peppers, then just put everything in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 4 to 5 hours. The chicken breast will be tender and easily shreddable, the beans will have soaked up all the flavour from the spices, and the soup thickened.
To finish it off, just shred the chicken, toss it back in then serve!
Mexican Chicken Soup Toppings!
Topping is not required. The toppings add to the delicious soup OMG this is so yummy!
In my world cheese, sour cream, coriander/cilantro and fresh lime juice are the bare minimum.
But add a little diced avocado and corn chips to your dunk and it dives into another stratosphere of deliciousness.
