How to Make Savory Southwestern Soup South Beach Friendly
- Chop 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1/2-inch cubes. Sprinkle with 1 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp onion powder. Mix well to coat.
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
- Stir in one (14.5 oz) can of diced tomatoes, undrained.
- Add one (16 oz) jar of your favorite salsa. Stir to combine.
- Pour in 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth. Bring to a boil.
- Add 1 (15 oz) can no-salt-added black beans, rinsed and drained, 1 cup frozen corn (omit for Phase 1 South Beach), and 1 cup trimmed and halved green beans.
- Return to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until beans and corn are tender.
- If desired, cook 1/2 cup long-grain rice separately according to package directions and stir 1/4 cup into each bowl before serving (omit for Phase 1 South Beach).
- Garnish with 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. For added crunch and fiber, consider adding 1/2 cup diced jicama.
