  • * I sometimes use precooked chicken to save a couple minutes prep time or use up leftovers.
  • Add broth, spices ,black beans, tomatoes, and corn. Bring to a boil, and then let simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Can also be cooked in the crockpot rather than on the stovetop -- in fact. the longer it cooks the tastier it is. Freezes well also.
