For The Soup
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- two 4-ounce cans diced green chiles
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- one 15-ounce can white beans (I usually use white chili beans or great northern beans)
- 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken is very yummy, or you can just add cooked chicken breast)
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons water
Toppings
- 1 bag frozen seasoned tator tots
- chopped cilantro and green onion
- hot sauce (I like a few shots of Tabasco on this)
Instructions
- Make Your Tots: Follow package directions for a bag of frozen tator tots. The soup doesn’t take too long so I usually like to do this first (they usually take 20-30 minutes).
- Cook the onions and garlic: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven. Add onions and garlic; sauté until nice and fragrant, about 5-10 minutes.
- Add spices: Add green chiles, spices, and salt. Give it a minute to get nice and yummy.
- Add everything else: Add beans, chicken, broth, sour cream, cream, and cornstarch slurry. Simmer until slightly thickened.
- You’re Done! Top each bowl of soup with a pile of seasoned tots, some cilantro and green onion, and a shot of hot sauce if you want. Absolute delight.
