Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

1 small yellow onion, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 (14.5 oz) cans chicken broth
1 can of corn drained
1 (7 oz) can diced green chilies
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 (8 oz) pkg Neufchatel cheese (aka light cream cheese), cut into small cubes
1 1/4 cup frozen or fresh corn
2 (15 oz) cans cannellini beans
2 1/2 cups shredded cooked rotisserie or left-over chicken*
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving
Tortilla chips or strips, Monterrey jack cheese, for serving

Instructions

Get your pot ready and heat up some olive oil on medium-high heat. Toss in the onion and let it sizzle for 4 minutes, then add the garlic for a quick 30 seconds. Time to spice things up - pour in the chicken broth, green chilies, and a whole bunch of the flavorful seasonings. Let it all come to a boil before simmering for 15 minutes.

While that's simmering, prep your beans by rinsing and draining them. Blend up a cup with some broth to make a smooth puree. Add the puree, whole beans, corn, and Neufchatel cheese to the pot and let it all meld together for a few minutes. Finish it off with some chicken, lime juice, and cilantro. Serve it up with cheese, extra cilantro, and tortilla chips if you're feeling fancy. Enjoy!
