Jalepeno Cheddar Chicken Soup
This is a delicious, thick soup. Adjust the amount of jalepenos to your taste. I like spicy, and this is on the enjoyable end of the spicy scale for me. I used smoked jalepenos and smoked chicken to make this recipe, which made a good soup taste excellent.

DIRECTIONS
- Cook chicken, shred, and set aside.
- Melt butter in soup pot. Saute garlic and jalepenos.
- Add flour, 1 Tablespoon at a time, stirring until the mixture is a paste, but you can still see bubbles from the butter.
- Add chicken broth slowly while stirring mixture. Same for milk and cream of chicken.
- Slowly raise temperature of soup to just below boiling point. Stir frequently.
- Whisk in about 1/4c of cheese until completely melted. Repeat until all cheese is melted into soup. (If you add cheese all at once it will ball up and soup will be stringy).
- Once cheese is melted in add chicken.
- Stir in sour cream, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Enjoy!
