Southwest Black Bean Chicken Soup

Since it has been raining here so much lately - I was in the mood for soup this weekend and this came out really good!!!

1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts cubed
1 can black beans rinsed and drained
2 cans corn (I used fiesta with the peppers)
3 cloves of garlic minced
1 tbsp chopped dried onions
1 tbsp vegetable oil
4 cups chicken boullion (with no MSG)
2 cups water
2 tbsp lime juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tbsp cilantro
Tostitos Dippin Strip tortilla chips
1/2 cup cheddar cheese

1.  Cook chicken in oil until no longer pink (in a dutch oven).  Remove with slotted spoon and set aside.
2.  In same pan, saute onion and garlic for 1 min.
3.  Stir in broth, corn, beans, lime juice, salt, chili powder, pepper, cilantro and chicken; bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 30 min.
4. Top each serving wiht chips and cheese (I like to just put it on the table and let everyone do this part themselves.

Yummy!!!
