Preparation Steps
- Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear on both sides for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate.
- Add the diced yellow onion, green pepper, and red pepper to the pot. Sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the onions are softened and slightly translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Return the chicken to the pot. Add the drained corn, rinsed black beans, undrained diced tomatoes, enchilada sauce, fajita seasoning, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
- Bring the soup to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the soup and turn off the heat.
- Stir in the lime juice. Serve immediately, garnished with sliced green onions, shredded cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, cilantro, and lemon wedges as desired.
