This soup is a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loves it. He says it's the best chicken tomatillo soup he's ever had.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have much flavor.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few leftover pieces of chicken after I roast a whole chicken, and this soup is the perfect way to use them up.

This soup was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still really good. I just added a little less chili powder next time I made it.

This soup was easy to make and so delicious! I used a rotisserie chicken to save time, and it turned out great. The tomatillos gave it a nice tartness that was balanced out by the sweetness of the corn and carrots.
