Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 oz) corn, drained
  • 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional garnishes: sour cream, chopped cilantro, sliced jalapeños, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add diced chicken to the pot and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes.
  4. Stir in taco seasoning and cook for 1 minute to release flavors.
  5. Add black beans, corn, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and chicken broth. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  6. Stir in heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese until the cheese melts and soup is creamy.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with sour cream, cilantro, jalapeños, and lime wedges if desired.

Notes

For extra heat, add a diced jalapeño with the onions or use spicy taco seasoning. Serve with warm tortilla chips or cornbread for a complete meal.
