The backstory.

Forgotten Ingredient = New Family Favorite

I was all set to make my favorite green chicken enchiladas—the chicken was prepped, the cheese was ready, and the enchilada sauce was waiting to be poured. But just as I started assembling, I opened the pantry and—no tortillas. Not a single one. I stood there for a moment, debating whether to abandon ship or make a desperate grocery run, but then inspiration (and hunger) took over. Instead of rolling enchiladas, I decided to turn everything into a soup. I tossed the chicken, broth, and green enchilada sauce into the slow cooker, crossed my fingers, and hoped for the best.

A few hours later, what came out was pure comfort in a bowl—a creamy, cheesy, flavor-packed soup that tasted just like green enchiladas, only cozier. The chicken was fall-apart tender, the broth was rich and velvety, and every bite had that perfect balance of zesty salsa verde and melty cheese. My family devoured it, and just like that, my go-to Green Enchilada Chicken Soup was born. Now, I make it on purpose—because sometimes, the best recipes happen by accident!

The must-make green chicken enchilada soup!

The viral sensation. A few years ago, this soup went viral—millions of views and still holding strong as my #1 recipe. Why? Because it’s downright delicious! 🔥

Big flavor, easy prep. Think cheesy, creamy, enchilada goodness—only in soup form! It's rich, satisfying, and ridiculously easy to make with only a few ingredients. Plus, you get to choose your method: slow cooker, stovetop, or Instant Pot!

Super customizable. It's easily adaptable to your family's tastes, pantry staples on hand, or dietary needs! Check out the flexible dietary swaps section below for more information.

What you'll need.

Ingredients needed for making green enchiladas chicken soup recipe on a white board.

Here is what you'll need to make creamy chicken enchilada soup in your slow cooker or Instant Pot:

Ingredients

  • Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts or Thighs - either one can be used.
  • Green Enchilada Sauce - use my homemade recipe (seriously, try it!) or grab a 28 ounce can.
  • Chicken Broth
  • Half and Half - half and half or heavy cream can be used.
  • Monterey Jack Cheese - if you can, grate your own cheese it melts better than packaged.
  • Cream Cheese - cubed and very soft. Soften it in the microwave before adding to the soup.
  • Green Salsa (Salsa Verde) - make your own salsa verde (it's easy) or use any favorite brand.
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Optional Garnish - avocado, green onion, sour cream, cilantro

Special equipment

  • 6-quart slow cooker, an Instant Pot, or a soup pot

For exact ingredient quantities, please see the recipe card below!

Make it yours.

Here are a few ways you can customize this recipe:

  • Spice it up by adding hot sauce, additional salsa, or chili pepper flakes.
  • Try adding a can of diced green chiles.
  • Add drained canned corn and beans like black beans, pinto beans, etc.
  • Fresh vegetables are wonderful in this soup. Add mushrooms, zucchini, sliced carrots when you add the broth.
  • Add a quick cooking minute rice, or add a half cup of long grain rice with the broth.

Flexible dietary swaps.

This soup is already a high-protein, low-carb favorite, but it’s super easy to tweak based on your preferences or what’s in your fridge:

  • Dairy-Free? Use a plant-based cream cheese (like almond or cashew-based), unsweetened plain oat milk or coconut milk in place of half and half, and swap in a vegan cream cheese alternative (to keep it creamy). Boom—dairy-free comfort in a bowl.
  • Lighter Option? Use fat-free half and half or low-fat cream cheese, and reduce the shredded cheese to 1 cup. You’ll still get that creamy vibe with fewer calories.
  • Higher Fat/Keto-Friendly? Use heavy cream instead of half and half, add extra Monterey Jack, or top with avocado and a dollop of sour cream for good fats.
  • More Veggies? Stir in spinach, zucchini, mushrooms, or riced cauliflower during the last 10–15 minutes of cooking. They’ll bulk it up without changing the flavor.
  • Vegetarian Swap: Sub in white beans (like cannellini or great northern) or chickpeas for the chicken, and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • Spice Control: Tone it down with mild enchilada sauce or salsa verde—or turn up the heat with jalapeños, hot sauce, or spicy salsa. Your call!

The bottom line: this soup loves a good remix. Make it your own and love every spoonful.

Add remaining ingredients

Add half and half, jack cheese, softened cream cheese, and green salsa. Turn the crockpot to warm and stir until the cheeses are melted.

Instant pot method (fastest!)

  1. Add chicken, enchilada sauce, and broth to your Instant Pot.
  2. Seal and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.
  3. Quick release, shred chicken, stir in remaining ingredients, and enjoy!

Stovetop method (weeknight-worthy!)

  1. In a large stockpot, add chicken, broth, and enchilada sauce. Simmer until chicken is done and can easily be pulled apart. Remove chicken and shred.
  2. Add shredded chicken and remaining ingredients. Stir and heat soup until it is warm and the cheese is melted.

How to enjoy it.

  • Adjust salt, pepper, and salsa to taste. Use hot sauce to increase the heat.
  • Delicious topped with avocado, cilantro, green onion, and sour cream.
  • Give your kids some scooped tortilla chips and let them scoop up their soup.
  • Crush tortilla chips over the top to add some crunch.

Kori's tips.

  • To add heat, use more green salsa or a green chili hot sauce.
  • Make sure your cream cheese is very soft before adding it to the soup. Cold cream cheese will not melt very well. You can even soften it in the microwave before adding it to the soup.
  • For best "melt-ability", always grate your own cheese. Pre-packaged grated cheese is often coated in potato starch, which helps prevent sticking inside the package. Unfortunately, this also keeps it from melting very well.

FAQs

What is the difference between green enchilada sauce and red enchilada sauce?

Red enchilada sauce is made with red tomatoes, red chili peppers, onions, and other spices.

Green enchilada sauce is most often made of diced green chili peppers (such as anaheim peppers, hatch, jalapeno, etc.), garlic, vegetable stock, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Additional jalapeno peppers may also be added for more spice. Sometimes recipes will add tomatillos as well.

What is the difference between Green Enchilada Sauce and Salsa Verde?

Both use very similar ingredients, but green enchilada sauce is cooked, and salsa verde uses raw ingredients. Not all green enchilada sauce recipes use tomatillos (but some do), whereas most salsa verde recipes use tomatillos.

What is green enchilada sauce made of?

Typically green enchilada sauce is made of spicy and mild green chili peppers, onion, garlic, cumin, and other seasonings. Sometimes a recipe will add tomatillos as well - but not always.

Can I make this soup in an Instant Pot?

Yes. Here's how to make Instant Pot Green Enchilada Chicken Soup:
Cook your chicken on high pressure with 1 cup of broth for 8 minutes. Do a quick release after 10 minutes. Remove chicken and shred. 

Set Instant Pot to saute medium, and add remaining broth, shredded chicken, green enchilada sauce, salsa, and heat until warm.

Add cheese and remaining ingredients. Stir until cheese is melted.
Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce if desired.  Enjoy!

Can I make green enchiladas soup on my stovetop?

Yes! Here's how to make Green Enchiladas Chicken Soup on your stovetop:

In a large stockpot, add chicken and broth.
Simmer until the chicken is done and can easily be pulled apart.
Remove chicken and shred.
Add shredded chicken, enchilada sauce, half and half, jack cheese, cream cheese, and green salsa to the pot. Stir and heat soup until it is warm and the cheese is melted.
Season with salt and pepper if needed. Serve with additional green salsa, hot sauce, and sour cream on the side. Enjoy!

Can I freeze this soup?

Yes. This soup can be frozen for up to 3 months in a freezer-safe, airtight container. Thaw in the refrigerator and reheat slow. Fats from the dairy may become separated; add additional milk or cream as needed.

Can I lower the fat in this recipe?

Yes. You can use fat-free half and half and you can reduce the cheese to 1 cup without sacrificing taste.

How can I increase the fat in this recipe?

Adding olive oil and additional cheese will increase the fat in this recipe. You can also use heavy cream in place of half and half. Topping the soup with avocado and sour cream will also increase the fat.

Kori's Tips

  • This recipe makes a mild to medium spice soup. To add spice, use additional green salsa or a green chili hot sauce or diced jalapenos.
  • Make sure your cream cheese is softened before adding it to the soup. The quickest way to soften is to remove it from the package and place in a microwave-safe bowl for a few seconds at a time on low - until very soft.
  • MUST TRY: Be sure to try our new homemade Green Enchilada Sauce Recipe - it's easy and delicious!
  • VARIATIONS: Feel free to add diced vegetables such as mushrooms, zucchini, bell peppers, or onions. Add jalapeno pepper if you like more heat. You can also add black beans, white beans, or corn. So many possibilities!
  • SERVING SUGGESTIONS: This is delicious topped with avocado, cilantro, green onion, and sour cream.

    Thank you so much, your recipe was wonderful. I tweeted with a few personal preferences. I sautéed diced onion, diced garlic and a diced poblano pepper. Added the water and two chicken bouillon’s because that’s what I had. Added diced rotisserie chicken and green enchilada sauce. Then the shredded Monterey Jack cheese. I did not add additional green chiles as I felt poblano was the sub. I did not have heavy cream so I subbed melted butter in milk heated in the micro. I served with added shredded cheddar, sour cream and cilantro topping. Served with garlic toast with the option of fresh tortilla chips. Amazing, thanks again. Definitely a keeper.

    I made this with my instant pot (Ninja). So simple! I put frozen chicken breast in and added the broth, 28 ozs green enchilada sauce (a can of drained black beans, a 10 oz pkg frozen corn) and a little seasoning salt. High pressure for 13 minutes. Quick release. Shredded the chicken and put back. Added the cream cheese, stirred until incorporated. The shredded cheese, stirred. The salsa verde, stirred. Then served. Totally forgot the heavy cream. Was DELICIOUS. This will be made again and again. Thank you for an amazing recipe. <3

      Hello, I'm sorry you are having issues printing! It should definitely print with the print button (with no reloading of the post or comments). I think it might be a technical issue with the device you were using? I tried from several different devices and it all printed fine. Maybe turn off your device and restart and see if that works?

    This was delicious. I used the shredded breasts from a rotisserie chicken, but followed the rest of the recipe exactly and did it on the stovetop- it took less 30 minutes. I did do all the liquid and cheeses first and then added the chicken at the end as it was still cold from the refrigerator. Everything melted well and everyone had seconds from age 70 to 17. I set out bowls with pico, corn, diced avocado, queso fresco, diced onion, tortilla chips, etc so everyone could top their soup in their preferred way. It’s officially in the rotation! Thank you!

    This is fantastic! I made this soup last nite for our Friday nite dinner with our next door neighbors, one of whom is on lo-carb diet. It was fabulous. I added my own homemade green salsa and a little green hot sauce and followed one reviewer’s suggestion of blending cream cheese with some hot broth before adding to the soup and that worked perfectly. I added herbs to the broth in which I poached the chicken breasts. Everyone loved it and the lo-carb dieter asked for the recipe! I can’t wait to make it again. Thank you for this recipe.

    Wow! Made this last week and it was a huge hit. My 7yr old considers himself a junior chef and suggested I double the chicken. I didn’t double it, but did add an additional pound. It’s in the crockpot right now. He & I are going to make a nice loaf of cheddar jalapeño bread for dunking. Best new recipe I’ve tried in a long time!

      Hello, thank you so very much! If it's a side for your grandkids, I would get the corn tortilla "scoops" and let them dip their soup - for whatever reason my kids love to eat it that way. lol The soup is pretty much a meal on its own, but you could make a fresh salad and serve it with Avocado Cilantro Dressing, or if you want another side you can go with these easy refried beans. If you want veggies, make these Mexican-inspired green beans. 🙂 Enjoy!

    The Original recipe was too spicy for kids to eat. I would start with a lot less green salsa (we used mild) and then add more if you would like.

      The soup was made to be mild (I'm not a spicy fan) but the spiciness of green salsa among brands can definitely vary. Great tip if you're not sure. Thanks for trying the recipe out!
