HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN ENCHILADA SOUP
Step 1: In a 5-quart crockpot, place the chicken, then pour in the broth followed by the enchilada sauce. Add in the cream of chicken soup, black beans, tomatoes, corn, onion, and bell peppers. Finally, add the seasonings on top of everything.
Step 2: Set on high and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, covered. Or 5 to 7 hours on low.
Step 3: Take the chicken out of the crockpot. Shred or cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add the chicken back to the soup, then add in the shredded cheese. At this point, you can add the cream cheese, if using. Set on low and cook for another 30 minutes.
Step 4: Into bowls, ladle the soup, add the tortilla strips or crushed tortilla chips. Enjoy with some more cheese, sour cream, and cilantro on top.
