A quick and easy soup that assembles from ingredients you probably have in the kitchen right now. This is a very flexible recipe for using up leftover bits. Black or kidney beans work best, but any canned bean will work. You can use frozen corn if you prefer, and sometimes I use a small can of corn and a can of hominy. If you can not find chipotle salsa, any variety will work with the addition of 1/2 tsp of ground cumin. But, the chipotle salsa will add the rich smoky flavor that says cooked all day. Updated to reflect correct amount of chicken stock.
Ingredients:
1 cup cooked chicken, cut up
16 ounces canned beans, rinsed and drained
16 ounces canned corn or 16 ounces hominy, rinsed and drained
2 cups chicken stock
8 ounces jarred chipotle salsa
Directions:
1. Pour all ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 15 minutes.
2. Serve with tortilla chips. If you are not a fan of spicy foods, use less salsa to start.
