Categories     Soup

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup chicken base
3 cups diced yellow onions
2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoon granulated garlic
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 - 2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
2 cups masa harina
4 quarts water
2 cups crushed tomatoes
½ pound processed American cheese ( cut in small cubes)
3 pounds diced cooked chicken ( (you can use 2 rotisserie chickens))

Steps:

  • In a pitcher or large measuring cup, combine the masa harina with 1 quart of the water. Stir until all lumps dissolve.
  • In a large pot, combine the oil, chicken base, onions, cumin, chili powder, granulated garlic, salt, and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Chop, dice, and measure all your ingredients before you start cooking. Having everything ready to go will make the cooking process go much smoother.
  • Use the right kind of chili peppers: Choose chili peppers that are appropriate for your desired level of heat. For a mild soup, use mild chili peppers such as ancho or pasilla peppers. For a medium-spicy soup, use guajillo or chipotle peppers. For a very spicy soup, use habanero or cayenne peppers.
  • Toast your spices: Toasting your spices before adding them to the soup will enhance their flavor and aroma. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the spices. Toast for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the spices.
  • Use fresh, flavorful ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Use fresh, ripe vegetables and high-quality meat and cheese. If possible, use homemade chicken broth instead of store-bought.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the better it will taste.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Top your soup with shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, cilantro, or any other toppings you like. This will add extra flavor and texture to the soup.

This chili enchilada soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering.
