Feel Better Chicken Poblano Soup
This is a great soup for when you're feeling under the weather. Or, enjoy this with a nice cozy blanked on a winter evening. Either way, it's sure to do the trick!
Equipment
- Pressure Cooker
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Boneless skinless chicken breast
- 2 Poblano peppers
- 8 Garlic cloves
- 1 10oz can Corn
- 1 10oz can White beans
- 1 5oz can Green chilis
- 1 Lime Juiced
- 1 Tbsp Cumin
- 1 Tbsp Dried cilantro
- 1/2 tsp Complete brand seasoning
- 2 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp Cream Cheese Optional
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Dice your poblano peppers and onion, to about the same size as your beans. If you have small beans, dice your peppers to match them. Meeting the bean size is key. Then peel and dice your garlic to match (or mince if you prefer)
- If using prepared chicken broth, add directly to your crockpot. If preparing your chicken broth, be sure your bouillon dissolves completely before adding to your crockpot. Then add your veggies
- Add your canned beans, corn, chilies, and the juice of one lime. Add your seasonings and a whole lot of love (you're trying to heal your sick family)
- Slice chicken breasts into strips for even cooking and lay in a single layer in the crockpot
- Set crockpot to 5 hours on low. After the 5 hours, remove chicken and shred before returning it to the pot. Set on high for remaining 1 hour
- Optional - add as much or as little cream cheese as you'd like for a creamier soup base. If anyone in the house has post-nasal drip or a bad cough, leave out the cream cheese or add separately to individual bowls.
Notes
If you’re lucky this winter season, and didn’t get
sick, we recommend making this with a side of
cornbread or Spanish rice, heck, why not both!
Having a little extra today means you don’t have
to make lunch tomorrow! Regarding the canned chilis, if you’re not a fan
of the can, 2 serrano peppers are a great
alternative. Know this though, by using fresh peppers
you’re introducing some extra spice. Chris & I
love the fresh pepper over canned but that’s a
personal preference.
