Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 sweet onion, diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chiles
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 (14 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 (14 ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 ½ to 3 cups chicken or veg stock
  • 1 cup corn (frozen, canned, fresh, etc)
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup sour cream or plain greek yogurt
  • for topping: fresh cilantro, chives, sour cream, tortilla chips, avocado, jalapeños, cheese

Instructions 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large stock pot over medium-low heat. Stir in the onions and garlic with the salt and pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the green chiles, cumin, smoked paprika and oregano. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add in the beans and stock. Add in the corn. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer and let cook for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and sour cream, mixing until completely incorporated. Taste and season additionally if needed. You may need an extra 1 teaspoon of salt - this will all depend on the flavor of your stock.
  • Serve in bowls topped with cilantro, chives, sour cream, tortilla chips, avocado and cheese.
