A hearty and flavorful soup combining chicken, rice, and spices, topped with a refreshing cilantro cream.
In a large saucepan, combine the chicken broth and garlic. Bring to a boil.
Crush the garlic slightly to release its flavor before adding to the broth.
Stir in the salsa, rice, oregano, and salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Add the chicken, black beans, corn, and green chilies. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
Ensure the chicken is pre-cooked and shredded for quicker preparation.
In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, cilantro, and lime juice until well combined.
Chop the cilantro finely for a smoother topping texture.
Serve the soup in bowls and top each serving with a dollop of the cilantro cream.
Garnish with additional cilantro leaves for a fresh presentation.
