This Chicken Chile Verde Soup really hits the spot when I’m looking for a hearty soup with a little kick. The two greatest things about this soup are that some of the time I use a store bought rotisserie chicken and the other is you can dump it all into one pot and walk away.
This soup is a time saver and a family favorite. I like to use Herdez Salsa Verde because all the ingredients are readable on the label. This Chicken Chile Verde soup is great at the end of a long day or freeze it and serve later for work or school lunches.
Theres nothing better than to open the fridge when you’re in a panic and have lunch or dinner already made. This soup is the best because I can dump all the items right into a stock pot and forget about it. Then any leftovers I can freeze and save for a later time.
Everyone loves Chicken Chile Verde Soup because it’s hearty and delicious with a little kick. Serve it with a side of sliced avocado or a side salad and all of a sudden you have a pretty quick family meal.
