Ingredients:
- 2 - poblano peppers
- 6 - chicken tenderloins, boneless, skinless
- - salt and pepper
- - olive oil
- - fajita seasoning, cumin, and chili powder to taste
- 1/4 cups - butter
- 1/4 cups - flour
- 8 cups - chicken broth
- 15 ounces - canned corn with red peppers
- 1 cans - black beans rinsed, drained
- 3 cups - shredded cheddar and jack cheese
- 2 teaspoons - ground cumin
- 1 dashes - cayenne pepper
- 1/2 cups - half and half, heavy cream, or evaporated milk
- - tortilla chips, jalapeno slices, fresh cilantro optional garnishes
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Place poblano peppers and chicken pieces on foil. Drizzle with a little olive oil, and season chicken with fajita seasoning, cumin and chili powder (to desired taste).
Roast for 15 minutes or until peppers are beginning to bubble up and char, and chicken pieces are cooked through.
Meanwhile, place butter and flour in a large stockpot and cook mixture, whisking or stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes. Slowly stir or whisk in the hot chicken broth, to allow mixture to thicken and combine.
Bring to a light boil; add corn with peppers and black beans, and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes.
Once chicken and peppers are finished roasting, shred or dice the chicken. Peel, remove tops and seeds from peppers, and dice them up. Add to the soup, stirring to mix well.
Stir in the cheese, cumin, cayenne pepper, and lime juice; then stir in the half and half, cream or evaporated milk.
Stir gently and allow to simmer over low heat until cheese is melted and ingredients are combined. Taste and add any further seasoning desired.
Garnish with jalapenos, tortilla chips, or cilantro to serve.
