This soup is FIRE! Bold, spicy and so satisfying! Top with shredded Monterey Jack cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro. I love to eat mine with tortilla chips or if I have time, make fried lime tortilla strips. So good! Note: this recipe calls for pre-cooked chicken. Be sure to adjust your preparation time, or cook your chicken ahead of time. For you Pressure Cooker fans (like me), just season your chicken and sear it quickly on saute mode, and then toss the chicken chunks in with your other ingredients, except toppings, when you pressure cook the soup.
