Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup frozen chopped onions
1 teaspoon crushed garlic

4 cups chicken stock

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few pieces of cooked chicken in my fridge, and this soup is a great way to use them up.

I'm not usually a fan of green chiles, but this soup was surprisingly good. The heat from the chiles was perfectly balanced by the creaminess of the soup.
