Main Instructions
In a large stockpot, stir together the shredded chicken, black beans, onion, garlic, corn, Rotel, enchilada sauce, and chicken broth until combined.
Heat over medium heat until bubbling, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes.
Once boiling, continue cooking for 10 minutes or until everything is heated through. Be sure to stir occasionally so that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cubed Velveeta and cream cheese.
Continue to stir and simmer until both cheeses are melted and the soup is thick and creamy, about 5 minutes.
Serve hot with your choice of toppings.
