Directions

Makes 6-8 servings


In a non stick soup pot brown cubed chicken. Add paprika and cumin. Push to one side of the pan and add butter and flour. Cook the butter and flour together for approximately 30 seconds to one minute while scraping bottom of pan with wooden spoon to release the color left from chicken.
Add chicken brother to pan while vigorously stirring or while wisking to dissolve butter/flour mixture into liquid. Add oregano, parsley, salt and pepper. Add velveeta, cubed to mixture. Stir constantly while bringing to a low boil. When mixture reaches low boil add milk. Stir until mixture comes back up to a boil. Add vegetables, rotel and diced tomatoes. Bring mixture back to a boil then turn heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Soup will thicken. When you are ready to serve garnish with shredded cheese and onions.
