Spicy Lime Jalapeno Chicken Soup


This is not only the perfect solution for healthy weeknight dinners (and I like to pack extras to take to the office for lunch)it has also been quite popular for Sunday football as well! This is another VERY popular recipe from the archives here on the blog, so I wanted to make a video of it to jog your memory on what an awesome recipe it is, and how easy it is to pull together!

The spice, the lime and the garlic make the chicken and beans so incredibly flavorful. I mean, it is really so good that I could eat a gallon of this stuff! I know you are going to love it too, and it will be just the thing as we head into hibernation weather!


Recipe: Spicy Lime Jalapeno Chicken Soup

Ingredients
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large yellow onion, roughly chopped
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1-2 jalapeno’s thinly sliced (depending how spicy you like it!)
1 whole raw chicken
2 cans white beans, rinsed and drained
8 cups chicken broth
1 lime
kosher salt
1 fresh jalapeno, thinly sliced
freshly chopped cilantro
1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat and then add the onions, garlic and jalapeno. Sprinkle with salt and saute 5 to 7 minutes until soft and tender and only lightly browned. Add the whole chicken to the pot. Add the chicken broth to the pot and put a lid in the pot. Turn the heat to low and let simmer for 60 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the pot and transfer it to a large bowl or pan. Transfer the broth with the onions, garlic and jalapeno to the jar of a blender (you may have to do this in batches) and puree on high until smooth. Pour the broth back into the pot and add the fresh lime juice and the beans.
Remove all of the chicken meat from the bones and skin of the chicken. Shred the meat and add it to the soup. Stir everything together and season to taste with kosher salt. Bring the soup to a simmer and serve hot with some fresh jalapeno slices, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a lime wedge.
