Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes (canned, no-salt-added)
• 15 ounces black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
• 1 cup frozen corn kernels
• 1 medium yellow onion (diced)
• 1 medium green bell pepper (diced)
• 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and green bell pepper to the pot and sauté for 5 minutes, until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and oregano to the softened vegetables. Stir constantly for 1 minute to toast the spices and release their aroma.

Step 4

Pour in the chicken broth and diced tomatoes (with their juices), and stir to combine.

Step 5

Add the chicken breasts to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 6

Remove the chicken breasts from the pot and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.

Step 7

Stir in the black beans, frozen corn, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for an additional 5–10 minutes to heat the beans and corn through.

Step 8

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. Serve warm and enjoy!
