You’ll need some cooked chicken breast. You can use either a rotisserie chicken or check your grocery store for already cooked chicken that is packaged up. I get mine from Trader Joe’s and I just chop it into bite size pieces.
Add your chopped chicken and corn to the saucepan. I found this charred corn from Trader Joe’s. It’s awesome! Perfect for soups!
Your red enchilada sauce is up next.
I also added some dicd tomatoes then a can of Old El Paso Green Chilies.
Your mild green chile sauce is next.
Add some ground cumin and I’m not kidding that is it! Give a good stir and cook until hot. Enjoy!
Garnish your bowl with some fresh cilantro leaves and tortilla chips if you’d like.
