    Absolutely Delicious! I used a whole rotisserie chicken (de-boned and diced) and used corn starch to thicken the soup instead of the Masa Mix. I also used medium spiced enchilada sauce and Mexican Style Velveeta Cheess so I did not have to add any seasoning (salt , cumin or chili powder). This is a fantastic recipe for cold winter days.

    Great recipe. We had beer can chicken left over and made the stock from scratch. We like a little more zing so we put a whole can of med. enchilada sauce in.
