Make this simple, comforting creamy chicken tortilla soup in your slow cooker using pantry staples and rotisserie chicken for a quick weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (10 oz) can diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 oz) can corn, drained
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning mix
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: Shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, tortilla strips

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts or thighs into the bottom of your slow cooker.
  2. Pour the cream of chicken soup, diced tomatoes and green chilies, black beans, corn, chicken broth, taco seasoning, cumin, and chili powder over the chicken.
  3. Stir the ingredients gently to combine.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through.
  5. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
  6. Add the cubed cream cheese to the soup. Stir until the cream cheese melts and the soup becomes creamy.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
  8. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve immediately with your preferred toppings, such as tortilla strips and cheese.

Notes

  • For a faster version, use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken. Add it during the last 30 minutes of cooking time instead of raw chicken.
  • Adjust the amount of chili powder or add a pinch of cayenne pepper if you prefer more heat.
  • If you want a thicker soup, remove about 1 cup of the liquid before adding the cream cheese, mix in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and then return it to the slow cooker.
