Method

In a large skillet cook chicken, onion, cumin, lime pepper seasoning, oregano, and garlic powder in hot olive oil over over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Stir in broth, beans, corn, bell pepper, roasted peppers, and chipotle peppers. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 20 minutes. Just before serving, stir in lime juice.

 

Notes: Serve with shredded cheese if you'd like. I love the smoky flavor of the chipotles, you can add more or less depending on your need for heat.

 

Number of Servings: 4-6
