3. Stir gently to combine ingredients around the chicken.
4. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until chicken is cooked through and tender.

Notes
For a spicier soup, use a Rotel variety with jalapeños or add cayenne pepper.
If you don’t have taco seasoning, mix chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
The soup can be made ahead and reheated; flavors improve overnight.
