Easy Crock Pot Chicken Chili Soup


This is a recipe my wonderful wife made. She hates to admit that she is actually a really good cook, but she can't deny it with this one, considering I request it on a regular basis.



The other great thing about this recipe it that it is in the crock pot which makes it even easier.

Ingredients:
2 Cans Black Beans
2 Cans Kidney Beans
2 Cans Diced Green Chili
2 Cans Diced Tomatoes with Green Chili
2 Cans Corn
1/2 Onion Diced
6 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
Chili Powder
2 Cloves Minced Garlic
Salt
Black Pepper
Parsley

Directions:
Open up all the canned ingredients. Drain 1 can of each, and then add each can of Black Beans, Kidney Beans, Diced Green Chili, Diced Tomatoes with Green Chili, and Corn into the crock pot. I use a 6 Qt. Crock Pot. Add the Onions, Chicken, and the Garlic. As for the Spices, add each to taste. You will be able to add more at the end and mix it in. I usually add around 2 Tablespoons of Chili Powder, Salt, Black Pepper, and Parsley. I would however recommend adding about 1 Tablespoon of each at the beginning and then mix in more to taste at the end of cooking. The cooking time will be 4 to 5 hours on High. About 3 hours into the cooking, pull out the chicken and dice or shred the chicken then return to the crock pot. At this point, you will be able to taste test the recipe and add more spices as you would like.

This makes a lot of soup, but we usually freeze half of it for another day!
