When life is busy, you need quick and easy recipes for whenever you need to get dinner on the table fast. This hearty soup checks all the boxes, and what is more, if you make a big batch, you can freeze half for your next time crunch.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, a couple of minutes. Add the chili powder, ancho powder, garlic, peppers, black pepper and salt and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the black beans, corn, canned tomatoes and green chiles, canned green chiles and adobo sauce. Add the broth and chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes to help build the flavor.
Turn off the heat and stir in the lime juice. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
To serve, ladle the soup into a bowl. Spoon over some sour cream, then add a sprinkle of Cotija and cilantro. Serve with the lime wedges.
