Key Ingredients
Cooked and Shredded Chicken – I used this easy Instant Pot method to cook and shred my chicken for this recipe. However, any cooked and shredded chicken will work here. If you’re lucky enough to find pre-cooked and shredded chicken at your local grocery store, then I highly recommend you pick some up. Also, if shredded chicken isn’t your thing, feel free to use diced chicken instead. Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes – Fire roasted diced tomatoes give this Mexican soup a slightly smoky and delicious charred flavor. I love using anything fire roasted in my Mexican-inspired recipes. This key ingredient really helps to amp up the flavor of the overall dish. Though if you can’t find fire roasted diced tomatoes, you can use regular diced tomatoes instead.
Chef’s Tips
Wait until the very end to taste the soup and adjust any seasonings. The soup needs the entire 30 minutes to simmer and allow the flavors to fully develop. Once that time is up, you’re free to give things a taste and add anything you’d like!Serve this Mexican soup however you’d like! Enjoy it with some fresh sliced avocado, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice for a low-carb meal. Or, my personal favorite, serve it alongside a bowl of crunchy tortilla chips for dipping!Add or remove any vegetables based on your preferences. Black beans and corn stick to the Mexican theme of this meal, though can easily be swapped for whatever you’d like. Pinto beans and/or bell pepper would make great additions to this recipe!
