Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Mexican Chicken Soup

Want a quick and easy dinner? Then try this no fuss soup. If you'd rather, you could bake your own chicken to put in this yummy soup, but the rotisserie chicken makes it super simple. I used corn in my version, but beans would be good, too....or a combination. A can of diced tomatoes would be great as well. Any way you fix it, it would be terrific!

Mexican Chicken Soup



2 32-ounce containers chicken broth
1 onion ~ diced
2 cloves garlic ~ minced
1 rotisserie chicken ~ shredded
1 7-ounce can diced green chilies (I used 2)
2 cups frozen corn (or your preference of beans)
1 teaspoon cumin
salt and pepper to taste

In a large pot, saute the onion, green chilies and garlic until soft.

Add the chicken broth.

Stir in the corn, shredded chicken and seasonings.

Bring to a boil.

Cover and reduce heat to simmer for about an hour.

Here we go!
