| This soup adds all the ingredients of a delicious enchilada, in one pot. 1 lb | Boneless, skinless chicken thighs | 
| 1 Tbsp | Olive Oil | 
| 1 | Medium Onion, diced | 
| 2 cloves | Garlic, minced | 
| 1 | (14 Oz) Can White Cannellini Beans, rinsed and drained | 
| 1 | (15.5 Oz) Can Black Beans, rinsed and drained | 
| 2 | Ears Fresh Corn Off The Husk, or 1 cup defrosted frozen | 
| 1 cup | Green Chili/tomatilla Sauce*, enchilada sauce | 
| ½ | Minced Jalapeno | 
| 1× 32 oz | Carton Chicken Broth | 
| ½ tsp | Salt | 
| ½ tsp | Pepper | 
| 1 tsp | Cumin | 
| 1 can | (14 Oz) Diced Tomatoes With Juice | 
| Handful Chopped Cilantro,  chopped 
Heat olive oil in a Dutch Oven and add chicken. Brown on both sides, about 3-4 min per side. Season with salt and pepper. Add in onions, jalapeno and garlic, stir until soft, about 4 min. Add corn, beans, broth, tomatoes, and cumin. Bring to a boil and lower to simmer for 40 min until chicken is falling apart. Stir in chilis and enchilada sauce, simmer for additional 5 min. Serve with torilla chips. top with chopped cilantro, a squeeze of lime and a dollop of sour cream.  
Helpful Tips:* I used a pouch of Rick Blayless' Green Enchilada Sauce. You can also used a can of enchilada sauce. The cannellini beans mostly fall apart thickening the soup a bit and give it a velvety texture. You can make this Vegetarian by leaving out the chicken and switching the chicken broth to vegetable broth. I also like to add spinach when I leave out the spinach- add 2 cups fresh baby spinach to the last 10 min of cooking. (Or use a package of thawed and drained frozen spinach). Enjoy! |
