TEX-MEX CHICKEN AND RICE SOUP
This simplified scratch-made soup is a spicy (but not too spicy) step beyond basic chicken soup. Made with chili powder, cumin, green chiles, corn and tomatoes, there's plenty of flavor to go around. Add rice toward the end of cooking to keep the texture just right, and when it's good and hot, serve with crunchy tortilla chips and a helping of shredded Mexican cheese blend for a hearty, satisfying meal in a bowl.

Steps:
- In 5-quart Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat; season chicken with salt and pepper. Cook chicken in melted butter 6 to 8 minutes, stirring once, until chicken is browned on outside. Using slotted spoon, transfer to bowl; cover and keep warm.
- Add onion and garlic to butter and drippings in Dutch oven; cook over medium-high heat 30 to 60 seconds, stirring frequently, until softened.
- Stir in chicken broth, tomatoes, chili powder and cumin; heat to boiling. Stir in rice, chiles, frozen corn and the browned chicken; return to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 23 to 28 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender.
- Serve soup topped with remaining ingredients.
