I am making the best crock pot dinner ever. Just the smell is making me swoon. Michael came home from school and asked me what was cooking. When I said Chicken Taco Soup, he got a look of utter confusion on his face. Then he went right over to the counter, lifted the crock pot lid, sniffed, and said "Oh man... oh wow.. that smells GOOD...!"
Chicken Taco Soup
1 package chicken filets
1 packet Taco Seasoning mix
1 can black beans
1 can corn
1 entire red onion
2-4 bell peppers
fresh lime
2-4 cups tomato sauce, plus chicken broth, if more liquid is needed
salt and pepper
Canola oil [1/4 - 1/2 cup, depending on your skillet]
Dice the entire onion and saute it in the canola oil. While that's going on, dice your peppers. Add them to the onions/canola oil mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste. Dump the corn and beans into your crock pot. Add the entire packet of Taco seasoning mix. (I also added some cayenne pepper and onion powder.) Cook onions/peppers 10-20 minutes, until onion and peppers are soft. Add them to the crock pot. Take out your chicken and wash it and dice it up. Brown it in the skillet. Add it to the crock pot. Stir everything well. Add a lot of squeezes of fresh lime.Cook 4-6 hours on low.
Serve topped with sour cream.
