How to Make Chicken Chile Verde Soup in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
We recently had a reader ask about making Cris’ Crock Pot Chile Verde Soup with chicken instead of pork. When I was talking to Cris about it, she said that we definitely should give it a try ourselves. When I saw how easy the recipe was to make, I was all for giving it a go! I am so glad I did. My family and I all loved this soup! The cilantro is optional, but if you are a fan of cilantro, don’t skip it. It really adds a pop of flavor to this soup! It is so yummy!
When Cris made the original version of this recipe, she drained and rinsed the beans. I really like the juices that are in the beans and the flavor they add, so I did not drain my beans. However, given how much Cris loves the original recipe, I would say that you are safe to add the beans drained and rinsed or undrained, whatever you prefer.
