Directions

COMBINE broth, enchilada sauce, evaporated milk, carrots, rice and cumin in large saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until mixture begins to simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender. Add chicken and corn; stir well.

SPOON into serving bowls; top each serving with tortilla chips, cilantro leaves and green onions, if desired.

TIPS:
• Different brands of enchilada sauce may have different heat levels. A hotter enchilada sauce can be used if a spicier stew is desired.
• Freeze half the stew for another meal. Thaw in refrigerator and reheat in microwave or on stovetop.

Remember to follow baking instructions before consuming.

Chicken Tortilla Stew

This is a wonderful stew for a cold day.If you don't want it thick just add more broth.You can also make it as spicey as you want.I also put shredded cheese on top.

Yummy!

Great recipe for the fall colder days. Very easy to make but I added a small can of diced green chiles to the recipe..

Chicken Tortilla Stew very nice

I didn't want the rice in the receipe so I cut the liquids by 1/2 and it turned out fine. I can see that it would take on different flavors with different sauces..
