Absolutely delicious!
Instead of tomato sauce, I used a can of fire-roasted tomatoes. I also added minced garlic and diced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Everyone loved it!
Is one cup chicken broth enough liquid for a soup or was that a mistake on the recipe
1 cup of chicken broth is correct 🙂
I’m finding that the one cup of broth makes it more like a stew.
You can definitely add more to thin it out 🙂
This is so easy, and so good!
Keeper. Thank you!
just replaced chicken with stewing beef. smells good can not wait to try this for the first time tonight.
Question: Can a Rotisserie chicken be used in this recipe? If so, how would I change the recipe? I look forward to your response.
Thank You
You would make the recipe the same, but it will only need to cook for about an hour or two or until everything is heated through since the chicken is already cooked. Enjoy!
i make this with ground beef instead of the chicken— it makes a really good chili, haha. it’s become part of our dinner rotation, so thank you for the recipe! 🙂
