Have you noticed that all the recipes I have shared lately are soup recipes? It was such a cold winter that is basically all that I made. This week I am sharing this Southwest Chicken Soup Recipe. This is one I made up and just threw a few things in the crockpot, named it, and there you have it, a new soup recipe. It’s a good thing I wrote down the recipe because once I make it and do not write it down, the recipes always seem to be different each time.
I started by throwing some frozen boneless chicken breasts in the crockpot and covering them with chicken broth. This recipe was originally going to be white chicken chili and realized I did not have most of the ingredients that I needed, so plan B.
Southwest Chicken Soup

- 1 pound bonless chicken
- 2 cups chicken broth, divided

- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon ground dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
Instructions
- Place boneless chicken in the crockpot with 1 cup chicken broth.

I was pretty pleased with how this Southwest soup recipe turned out. I am pretty much convinced that you can almost throw anything into a soup recipe and it will turn out fairly well as long as you add the right spices to the mix.
I did find the chicken seasoning blend spice mix on Allrecipes and thought that would be a great addition to give this soup the seasonings it needed. I will also be using it to season some of the chicken recipes that we make for dinner.
