EASY SPICY CHICKEN RICE SOUP



Easy Spicy Chicken Rice Soup image

I got this recipe about three years ago from the back of a can of tomatoes (Delmonte, I think), and it's been a hit with my husband -- who isn't a soup fan generally. It's a very easy but good comforting winter soup that also freezes well. Also easy to double recipe.

3 cups chicken broth or 3 cups water
1 1/2 lbs chicken, seasoned (I prefer breasts)
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1 package red beans and rice mix
shredded cheese

Steps:

  • Cook chicken with either Cajun or Mexican seasonings-- sometimes I bake the chicken, and sometimes I saute it.
  • (I've also cut up a store-bought rotisserie chicken for this).
  • Dice cooked chicken.
  • Prepare red beans& rice (I like Zatarrain's) per package directions.
  • (it has to cook about 30 min) Meanwhile, combine chicken broth& diced tomatoes; bring to a boil.
  • When boiling, add diced chicken.

  • Spoon into bowls and top with cheese.
