Ninja Foodi Chicken Enchilada Soup

The weather is definitely feeling more fall-like, cooler temperatures, leaves turning colors, and that autumn breeze.  When the weather changes I like to start adding soups into our meal rotation. Making your own soup allows you the freedom to leave out things your family doesn’t like and also gives you amazing leftovers! Whenever I make a batch of soup we usually have enough to freeze for another meal and for everyone to have lunch the next day. Tonight, we are making Chicken Enchilada Soup in the Ninja Foodi. It’s quick, easy, and takes less than 30 minutes, perfect for those nights you are running kids to practices.

Our Ninja Foodi Chicken Enchilada soup is literally a dump recipe. Even Peyton, who is 11, can make this soup. But I do have a few tips – always lets the soup do a natural release. Dropping the temperature too quickly can cause the chicken to turn tough.  Let it sit and do a natural release for 10 – 15 minutes before you flip the valve open. Because this is a dump recipe, open all the cans and measure out anything you need.

To make this yummy Ninja Foodi Chicken Enchilada Soup you will need the following –

1 can (14.5 ounces) Chicken Broth
1 Lg Can (28 ounces) Enchilada Sauce
1 can (14.5 ounces) Diced Tomatoes (or Rotele for more heat)
1 can (4.5 ounces) Diced Green Chilis
2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (you can add more if you like)
2 can Black Beans, drained and rinsed well
2 C Corn, frozen

For Toppins –

Shredded Mexican Cheese
Fresh Cilantro
Tortilla Strips
Sour Cream
Avocado


First, set up your Ninja Foodi, you will need the pressure cooker lid for this recipe.

Pour in the chicken broth, enchilada sauce, tomatoes, and green chilis. Give it a quick stir.

Next, add in the chicken breasts.

Place the pressure cooking lid on the Ninja Foodi, make sure the vent is set to seal. Press the pressure cooking button, high, 5 minutes.

When the cook time is over, let the Ninja Foodi do a natural release for 10 minutes, then open the vent and let the remaining pressure release. Rushing this step can cause your chicken to become tough.

Remove the chicken from the pot and shred.

Add the shredded chicken, frozen corn, and black beans to the Ninja Foodi.

Press the Sautee button and bring the soup to a boil. You will want to stir this occasionally to prevent any burning.

Once the beans and corn and heated through you are ready to enjoy!

Serve with fresh cilantro, shredded Mexican cheese, tortilla strips, sour cream, or avocado.

This freezes well and tastes just as yummy the next day warmed up.
