Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion diced
  • 2 bell peppers diced
  • 2 cups rotisserie chicken meat shredded
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne adjust to taste
  • 1 can chili beans
  • 1 can pinto beans drained
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Add the diced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until they begin to soften.
  • Add the shredded rotisserie chicken to the pot and stir to combine with the vegetables. Sauté for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Sprinkle in the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and cayenne. Stir well to coat the chicken and vegetables with the spices.
  • Pour in the canned chili beans, drained pinto beans, and diced tomatoes (including the juice). Stir to combine.
  • Add the chicken stock to the pot. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for about 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with salt, black pepper, and additional cayenne if you prefer more heat.
  • Serve hot, garnished with shredded cheese, chopped fresh cilantro, or a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
