Easy and tasty! The refried beans turn the soup into a thick, lean, protein rich, and satisfying meal. I prepare it the night before and set it on low in the morning, by evening there is a hot thick spicy soup! My two young boys enjoy it!

How To Make crockpot chicken tortilla soup

  • 1
    Preparation: fill removable crock from crockpot with frozen breasts, frozen corn, seasoning, beans, and tomatoes or salsa. Place in fridge, covered overnight. (You could start with thawed breasts in the morning but have found this method the easiest for me.)
  • 2
    Set out crock to warm in morning without heat for about a half hour to avoid cracking the crock.
  • 3
    Set crock into electric warmer, set to low for 5-8 hours.
  • 4
    Remove chicken and shred with forks. Add can of green chilies undrained. Return chicken to crock. Stir well and recover. Switch warmer from low to warm. Cook for an additional 20 to 30 minutes.
  • 5
    Serve with tortilla chips, sour cream, cheese, and olives as garnish.
