Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts diced
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 red bell pepper chopped
  • 4 cups chicken broth use low-sodium
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper

Method
 

  1. Begin by heating olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and chopped red bell pepper, cooking until softened—this should take about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the diced chicken breasts to the pot and cook until they are no longer pink inside, which typically takes about 6-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the ground cumin, chili powder, black beans, diced tomatoes, and chicken broth into the pot. Bring everything to a boil so that all the flavors meld together beautifully.
  4. Reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes. This allows all ingredients to combine harmoniously while thickening slightly.
