How to make Mexican style Chicken Corn Chowder
I wouldn't go so far as to describe this as 'authentic' Mexican cuisine (my girlfriend laughed when I described the Mexican dish I was doing), but it's very tasty and more importantly low maintenance.
If I'd had more time I probably would have baked a loaf of fresh bread to go with it, too.
For my shredded chicken I simmered a few breasts in a pan for a couple of hours with half and onion and a clove of garlic.
After it cooled off I pulled it apart with my fingers and a fork. I did extra and I've been chucking it into burritos and salads etc as well.
I sauted the chicken in a pan with some onion, garlic, a little chicken stock, black pepper and a little cumin.
Chop up the chili and tomatoes, and add all of the ingredients to the rice cooker, except for the corriander which is used for garnish.
I let mine go for about 3 hours, and soup always seems to come out better the longer it has to simmer. I could have prepared it in the morning and let it go all day ready for dinner, if I'd wanted to.
Garnish with corriander and serve with tortilla chips.
