It is almost unfair to call this dish a “soup,” it is so much more than that. It’s a meal in a bowl that awakens your taste buds to a whole new experience of fun. Flavorful yet light, spicy but just right. Try it and be amazed.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 (15.5-oz.) can chili beans

  • 1 (15.5-oz.) can black beans

  • 1 (15-oz.) can corn, drained

  • 8 ounces Gefen Tomato Sauce

  • 1 (12-oz.) bottle beer (any variety)

  • 2 (10-oz.) can diced tomatoes

  • 1 heaping teaspoon chili powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cumin

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon pepper

  • 3 chicken breasts

  • tortilla chips, for garnish (optional)

Directions

For the Soup

1.

Layer all the ingredients, in the order listed, in a slow cooker, ending with the chicken breasts. Press the chicken into the mix so that it is submerged in the liquid.

2.

Cook on medium–low for about five hours. Remove chicken from the pot and shred into bite-sized pieces. Return chicken to the pot. Continue cooking for one to three hours, as needed.

3.

Serve hot with tortilla chips for garnish and crunch.

Yes, just cook it low and slow on the cooktop for the same amount of time it says for the crockpot.

Yes, but I would substitute it with chicken or veggie broth.

Chili beans are red/pinto beans in a chili sauce. They are found in cans in the bean aisle. If you can’t find it, you can google a recipe how to make them at home, they are pretty simple.
