8-Can Chicken Taco Soup




Nothing is better than having a recipe that basically cooks itself, right? That’s basically what this 8-can chicken soup is like. If it weren’t clear from the name, the crux of this soup is comprised of eight different cans of assorted ingredients. Beans, corn, tomatoes, chicken and green chiles are some of the many things tucked away into this soup, but our favorite part, apart from the flavor and how filling it is, is the fact that it can be made in as long as it takes you to bring it to a boil. We’re talking under 20 minutes – victory!

That’s right, pour all your ingredients into your stock pot and then bring it all to a boil. We used only one can of chicken broth, since we like ours to be pretty thick, but you can add another you if want a slightly soup-ier quality. While you could stick with your eight, base ingredients, plus your taco seasoning, we think that bolder is better, so we amped up the flavor by adding more cumin and chili powder, along with garlic and onion powder to round things out. Are they totally necessary given all the flavor from the other ingredients? No. Do they take the recipe from good to great? Absolutely.
Is there anyone you know that wouldn’t benefit from a filling, healthy, 20-minute meal? No, probably not. If you want to use freshly diced chicken breast in here and have it cook while the soup boils, that’s fine too, but we’ve found we love just how easy our version is and can’t get enough of it. No stress, no hassle, and everybody gets to come together at the table and enjoy a meal together. Now that’s a recipe we can get behind.
