I searched high and low for a great recipe for slow cooker fajitas before I came up with this. The best part for me is that I don't have to defrost the meat before I throw it in there. Also, this makes a very large batch, so it's good for big families or a crowd of guests.

Tips:
- To enhance the smoky flavor of the soup, use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to sear the chicken and vegetables.
- For a spicier soup, add additional chili powder, cumin, or cayenne pepper to taste. To tone down the spice, reduce the amount of chili powder or omit it altogether.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. If necessary, cook the chicken and vegetables in batches to ensure they are evenly browned.
- Use a variety of bell peppers for a more colorful and flavorful soup. Green, red, and yellow bell peppers are all good choices.
- Be sure to drain the black beans and corn before adding them to the soup. This will help to prevent the soup from becoming too watery.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado, and tortilla chips.
