Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup is the perfect way to warm up on a cold day. This hearty soup is full of chicken, beans and corn. I love the corn in this soup because it gives it a little bit of a crunch. The seasonings make this soup so tasty.
This soup is similar to my Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup, but works great for those who don’t have an Instant Pot.
Cooking chicken in a slow cooker is great because the chicken stays moist and gets very tender. The chicken in this recipe just falls apart when it is done, making easy shredded chicken.
Chicken Taco Soup Ingredients
Most of the items you need for this recipe may already be in your pantry. It is mostly canned goods and seasonings. Scroll down to the recipe card for exact amounts.
- boneless skinless chicken breasts: You can add additional chicken breasts (1 or 2) to make this soup more like a stew. It tastes just as good but it makes more.
- fat free chicken broth: You can substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth, and it tastes just as good. Vegetable broth is full of flavor! I like to use Imagine Organic Low Sodium Vegetable Broth.
- corn
- kidney beans
- pinto, red, or black beans
- diced tomatoes with green chile
- seasonings: chili powder, paprika, black pepper, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, oregano (For extra easy chicken taco soup in the crock pot, substitute a packet of taco seasoning for all the other seasonings. No measuring!)
