  • 1 Poblano Pepper, chopped (seeds & stem removed)
  • ½ tsp Garlic Powder
  • ½ tsp Onion Powder
  • ½ tsp Chili Powder
  • ½ tsp Dried Oregano
  • ½ tsp Kosher Salt
  • ½ tsp Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
  • ¼ tsp Cumin
  • 2 cups Shredded Chicken (rotisserie or cooked chicken breast/thighs)

  • 1–2 tsp Fresh Lime Juice (from 1 lime wedge)

Instructions

  1. Sauté the butter over medium heat in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add chopped onions, poblano pepper, and half of the seasoning blend and cook for 5–6 minutes.
  2. Stir in shredded chicken, black beans, corn, chicken broth, and the remaining seasoning. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  3. Let the soup cook uncovered for 15 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheese and mix until melted. Bring to a simmer again.

For a thicker soup, simmer longer uncovered. Adjust salt and lime juice to taste before serving.
