Ingredients You’ll Need

Shredded Rotisserie Chicken:

I love using rotisserie chicken. It’s so easy and so cost effective to use in so many recipes. Here, I just deboned about half of the chicken and placed it into the crockpot. I used white and dark meat. I also used the skin. I love all the flavors! However, you can use whatever parts of the rotisserie chicken you would like.

Canned Ingredients:

I used a can of black beans, a can of fire roasted corn, and a can of Rotel tomatoes with green chiles. So easy. Just dumped them all in for tons of flavor. Do not drain! You’ll want on the juice from each can.

Onion:

I chopped half of an onion and added it right into the crock pot. Don’t worry about sauteing it first, the slow cooker will cook it nicely into the soup and release all the flavors.

Chicken Broth:

I used a 32 oz carton of chicken broth. You can use reduced sodium if you prefer. Either will work just fine.

Taco Seasoning:

Lastly, I emptied a one-ounce packet of taco seasoning into the crock pot. That’s honestly the only seasonings I added to the soup. So simple, with tons of flavor!

Cream Cheese:

You’ll add in your block of cream cheese right before you’ll serve it. I wanted the juices to cook together for the full three hours.

Toppings:

There are so many toppings you can add to this soup. I used the tortilla strips, fresh cilantro, fresh lime, shredded cheese, green onions. The possibilities are endless. You could also add in sour cream, chips, and jalapenos!
