Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
Chicken Tortilla Soup is deliciously filling and gratifying, and it is bursting with Tex-Mex flavor.
There is no pre-cooking required for this recipe, and cleanup is simple. Picante sauce, condensed cream of chicken soup, Rotel tomatoes, canned black beans, and canned corn are the main ingredients in this delectable Mexican dish.
This soup’s base, two cans of condensed cream of chicken soup, gives it a beautiful, thick and creamy texture.
The slow cooker’s “warm” setting can be used to keep the chicken enchilada soup warm after it has been prepared in just a little more than 4 hours.
This dish only calls for 2 chicken breasts, so it’s a wonderful way to pack a lot of protein into a small amount of food. Very cost-effective!
