This is a great meal-in-a-pot that is quick and easy to put together. Get the chicken going, then turn your attention to the soup and, before you know it, dinner's ready! I found this in the Chicago Trib.

2 large boneless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeno chile, minced (if you want the soup hotter, include the seeds)
4 cups low sodium chicken broth
3 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

Steps:

  • Or, grill the chicken on an outdoor grill, which is what I usually do.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a stockpot over medium heat; add onion, garlic and chili; cook until soft, about 3 minutes; add broth, corn, beans (undrained), lime juice, salt and red and black pepper to taste; heat to a boil, reduce heat to simmer.
  • Slice or shred cooked chicken; add to pot.
  • Add cilantro; heat through, about 1 minute.
  • Ladle into soup bowls; top each with shredded cheese and crumbled tortilla chips, if desired.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have some leftover chicken after I roast a whole chicken, and this soup is a perfect way to use it up.

I wasn't sure about the cayenne pepper, but it actually adds a really nice flavor to the soup. It's not too spicy, just enough to give it a little kick.
