GREEN CHILE CHICKEN SOUP
One of our favorites. A spicy, tasty soup. If you like, you can add 1 cooked potato cut into pieces at the end before serving. The more chiles you use, the spicier the soup!

GREEN CHILE, CHICKEN, AND CORN SOUP
This soup has some of my favorite things in it! I really enjoy it in the fall, just as the weather is turning cold. I can usually still find fresh corn at that time, and it's so great to have a warm soup on a crisp, chilly night! This is from "Southwest Cooks!", a collection of Native American cuisine.

Steps:
- Peel the onion and stud with the cloves. Combine the onion, broths, chicken and potato in a Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until the potato is tender.
- Remove the onion. Remove the chicken, reserving the broth in the pan. Let the chicken cool, bone it, and chop the meat. Return the chicken to the pan; set aside.
- Cut chiles in half lengthwis; remove seeds and membranes. Place chiles, skin side up, on an ungreased baking sheet; flatten with the palm of your hand. Broil 3 inches from the heat (with electric oven door partially opened) 6 minutes or until charred. Place chiles in ice water; peel and discard skins. Coarsely chop the chiles, and add to the reserved broth mixture.
- Stir in corn; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 4 minutes or until the corn is tender. Taste your soup, and add salt and pepper as needed (depends on the broth you originally used).

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN SOUP
Ridiculously easy and quick. My husband's favorite. The only way to mess this one up is to add too much milk making the soup too thin. I got this recipe from my mother, but I don't know where it originated. The amounts can vary. You really can't mess this one up.

Steps:
- Mix soups, chicken, corn and green chile in very large pot.
- Gradually add milk to desired consistency.
- I use about 3/4 of the empty soup can full.

CREAMY GREEN CHILE CHICKEN SOUP RECIPE

Steps:
- In a large saucepan or dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for about a minute, until fragrant. Add chicken stock, raise heat and bring to a boil. When stock is boiling, remove 1/2 c. of broth and let it cool. To the boiling broth, add shredded chicken and green chile. After reserved broth is cool, add 1 Tbs. of flour to it and whisk until well blended. Add the flour mixture back into the boiling broth and mix well. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring frequently. In a small bowl, add the cream cheese. Gradually add the half and half, whisking constantly. This is so the mixture won't be as clumpy when you add it to the soup; if it's a little clumpy, don't worry because it will end up melting into the soup. Add the cream cheese mixture gradually into the soup, whisking constantly. When cream cheese mixture is added, reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer the soup for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the soup thickens. Do not boil. Ladle soup into bowls and enjoy! *Serve with warm flour tortillas if possible

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN SOUP
When I first came home after having my baby, my sister in-law made a soup like this for me and froze it in a bag to reheat in the crock pot so I didn't have to cook. I fell in love with it so I added a few ingredients and it is now a staple in our home. Hope you like it!!

Steps:
- 1. If you're using a precooked chicken, remove the skin and shred all of the meat into a bowl and set off to the side covered with the skin to hold in moisture. If you're going to make the chicken yourself, rub it with salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder and chile powder. Then put on a roasting pan drizzled with EVOO and roast on 400 degrees for about 30 minutes, let it rest about 10 minutes on covered in foil and shred when needed. This makes good juices to add to the soup :)
- 2. In a large stock pot, add the butter, garlic and onions and saute on medium-ish for a few minutes until the onions are tender. The onions are more for flavor and will basically dissolve when the soup is done (good for kids who don't like onions)
- 3. Then dump in the green chiles, beans(drained), lime juice, and tomatoes. Stir and let it come to a bubble.
- 4. Add all the seasonings, stir and add the corn, broth, and water. Once again, let it come up to a bubble (not a boil) and then add in all of the chicken. reduce heat to low, cover and let it simmer until ready to eat. Just before serving, toss in the cilantro to keep the green color and give it a pop of fresh flavor. I've eaten it 10 minutes later... I've eaten it an hour later, it's all delish :)
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, roasted green chiles. You can roast them yourself or buy them canned.
- If you don't have any green chiles, you can substitute another type of chile pepper, such as Anaheim or poblano peppers.
- To make the soup more spicy, add more green chiles or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- If you want a thicker soup, add more vegetables or beans.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, avocado, cilantro, or lime wedges.
Conclusion:
Green chile chicken soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The soup is packed with flavor from the green chiles, cumin, and oregano. It is also very filling and satisfying. If you are looking for a new soup recipe to try, I highly recommend this one.
