Soup is my favorite! My recipe for Taco Soup is actually one of my most popular recipes on my blog. This time around though I want to share with you the chicken version. It's just as good and I think you are going to love it just as much as I do. I decided last week to serve this up for dinner once again. When the winter comes you can count on my table seeing soup at least once or twice a week. It's the best comfort food around.
How to make Chicken Taco Soup:
Cut chicken into bite sizes pieces. In a large pot cook chicken pieces until cooked through. Add corn, salsa, chilies, black beans, taco seasoning, dry ranch mix and mix together well. Pour in beef broth and allow to simmer on medium/low for 30-40 minutes.
How to Freeze Chicken Taco Soup:
Start by cooking your chicken according to the directions then allow to cool. Add all remaining ingredients to a freezer bag. Add in cooled chicken and place in the freezer. When fully frozen this soup should be good in the freezer for 4-6 months. When you are ready to cook lay out in the fridge 24 hours before serving then cook according to instructions.

Nutrition
I WAS A LITTLE CONFUSED ABOUT COOKING THE CHICKEN. FIRST YOU SAID COOK IT TILL COOKED, THEN YOU SAY ADD OTHER INGREDIENTSS AND LET SIMMER 30-40 MINUES. WOULDN'T THAT OVERCOOK IT?
So you would want to simmer it on low, but the other ingredients will keep the chicken nice and moist. It should not overcook or dry the chicken out.
What kind of salsa
Hi Blanca. I use a mild chunky salsa but any salsa you usually use will work.
Made this today with ground turkey. Oh my it was so easy and delicious. Doubled the recipe so we can have it again this week.
Glad you enjoyed it!! =)
