      This was a very tasty and hearty meal. My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe. To save time I used canned chicken and used the broth from the canned chicken. I added additional broth to the mixture due to personal preferences and since the soup was so hearty. We added cheese and sour cream to our individual bowls. Thank you for this recipe!

      Do NOT use left-over turkey! The turkey has too much poultry flavoring which muddles any 'Mexican' taste.

      Excellent! I just finished making this and it is addictive!! I made a couple of minor adjustments simply because you do what you have to do… I used Rotel instead of green chiles, I didn’t have those on hand. I used a whole 14.5 ounce can of chicken broth because I hate left over stock (I always forget I have it in the freezer and someone will throw it out). The had to cook up the chicken in the soup pot first with salt, pepper and other spices, then added the onions and garlic. Once that was fully cooked I added the rest. Very yummy and really easy to make!!! The Rotel adds a nice zing to it if you like that!! Thanks for sharing!!!

      This was very tasty. We skipped the diced chiles, we're spice lightweights.

      I LOVED this recipe. I made it exactly as is although I did add extra chicken broth to make it a little more soupy. This is a wonderful "base" for possible stews of all kinds. The variations are endless. It is more tomato-y than Mexican in my opinion but EASILY you can add spices of all kinds and it is delicious...which is what makes it so great. It's a basic soup to work from according to your preference...and it is delicious as is! Definitely try this if you love soups and stews as comfort foods. Cheap, economical, easy to make and takes less than 30 minutes.

      We loved this! Great way to use leftover chicken and a fast, easy weeknight meal. You so gotta try this. I'll be making it again and again. Thanks!

      Awesome! The ONLY change I made was to double the chicken broth/cornstarch mixture since I wanted more of a soup-like consistency. Very much like a WW Tortilla Soup recipe I have posted but much, much faster. Easily ready in 20 minutes.

      I loved this! Only had one can of tomatos, so used some salsa also. Great with corn muffins.

      A keeper.I served it with corn bread, and a dish of sour cream on the side....my son ate his bowl with corn bread, the took another bowl with sour cream and ate it with tortilla chips...needless to say I'll be making this often. Thanks so much for sharing!

      I made this last night with some leftover Thanksgiving turkey and it was absolutely delicious! My husband loved it. I did have a little extra time so I let it simmer an extra 20 minutes or so. I also served it over rice, to stretch it a little further. For the reviewers who would like to cut down on the salt, McCormick's sells a reduced-sodium taco seasoning - I used one envelope of this and the salt was just right. Thanks for a great recipe!

      Easy Easy Easy and Fast to make. And healthy too. My husband who took this in his lunch swears that it tastes good cold too. If you buy the onions pre-chopped and the chicken is already cooked, there is less than five minutes prep time. It smells SO good while it is cooking. I like the fact that you can buy the ingredients in bulk and make it at any time. This will become our "comfort food" too.

      Made this tonight for dinner, it was very good! I used some boneless skinless chicken thighs I needed to use up. followed the recipe, only addition was hot pepper flakes. Next time I might substitute fresh diced jalapenos for the canned chilis. Garnished with cilantro, lime wedges, and a dollop of sour cream.

      We loved this! Instead of adding the tomatoes and the chilies I used them mixed in the same can. I also used left over chicken.

      I had to make a few minor changes to the recipe to avoid a trip to the store. I used leftover turkey. I also used a large can of crushed tomatoes and a can of rotel instead of 2 cans of diced tomatoes and 4 ounce can of diced chilies. My can of corn was also larger than called for but I drained it and put the whole can in anyway. My stew was very think (probably due to the crushed tomatoes) so I put in the whole can of chicken broth and left out the corn starch. It still turned out fantastic. I didn't have any because I don't eat turkey, but the rest of the family gave it 5 stars!

      Excellent. I cook ahead and shred/cube chicken all the time so this was so easy. I followed the recipe exactly and served with a hearty wheat Italian bread and shredded Mexican cheese blend. Very tasty and would be very versatile...I will probably throw in some Rotel or other seasoned tomatoes next time, and/or spice it up a bit more. Not super "mexican" tasting but very yummy.

      I'm not so sure about the addictive part, but it is very good, very easy to make and uses almost entirely ingredients that we stock regularly anyway. Will definitely be making this again.

      My boyfriend (who I always have to compromise on the healthy v. unhealthy dishes) LOVED this stew and was raving about it the next week. And I like it because it's not that bad for you! It was great, thanks!

      Like others, I used 2 cans of (different) beans, 1 Tbl. cornstarch, 1 Tbl cumin in addition to taco seasoning. Yummy, and very easy if you have leftover chicken. Great make-ahead too. I served with thick corn chips for scooping, and a green salad.
