Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Chipotle Chicken Soup.
Step 1
Start by warming a generous splash of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the minced onion and garlic, letting them sizzle and soften for about 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 3
This is where the magic begins, as the aroma fills your kitchen! Next, pour in the chicken broth and gently add the cubed chicken.
Step 4
Cover the saucepan and let it simmer until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, which should take around 10 minutes.
Step 5
While that’s happening, grab a separate bowl and mix together the chopped chipotle peppers with half of the reserved adobo sauce.
Step 6
In another bowl, combine the diced tomatoes with the fresh, vibrant cilantro.
Step 7
Now, it’s time to bring some heat to your dish! Gradually stir the chipotle mixture into the broth, adding spoonfuls at a time and tasting as you go until you find that perfect level of spiciness that makes your taste buds dance.
Step 8
Once you’ve achieved your desired flavor, take the saucepan off the heat and fold in the tomato and cilantro mixture.
Step 9
This final touch adds a burst of freshness that beautifully complements the rich, smoky flavors.
Step 10
Enjoy the delightful journey of flavors in your bowl!.
