How to make jalapeño popper chicken soup:
First, add the chicken breasts in the bottom of a crock pot. Then season the chicken with the salt, pepper, and taco seasoning.
Next pour in the diced jalapeños, diced onion, beans, cream of chicken soup and chicken broth.
Stir to gently combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or cook on high for 3-4 hours.
After the cook time, remove chicken and shred. Add the chicken back to crock pot. Then dice the cream cheese and add the cream cheese into the crock pot. Cover and cook until the cheeses melt.
While the cream cheese is melting in the crock pot, cook the bacon until it’s crispy. This Air Fryer Bacon Recipe is a great way to prepare the bacon quickly. Then chop up the cooked bacon into smaller bite size pieces.
Add in the cooked bacon stirring it into the soup right before serving (save some for the topping). Serve immediately topped with cheddar cheese, additional jalapeño poppers and bacon. Enjoy!
Tips for this jalapeño poppers chicken soup recipe:
- Use a spoon to easily deseed the jalapeño peppers.
- Check out this tip on how to make shredding the chicken for this recipe even easier with a hand held mixer.
- Do not drain the beans as this makes the soup thicker.
- Once you have added the cream cheeses and cooked it through, uncover and start stirring until the cheeses are well incorporated.
- If you are sensitive to spicy food, reduce the jalapeño peppers in half. Taste test the soup once it’s finished and you can add more jalapeño peppers to the top of the soup if more spice is wanted.

Made this soup tonight. It was delicious. It’s a keeper
Love this soup! So easy and the perfect comfort soup.
I just love this dish as did the family
Christmas dinner is now a Mexican dinner. This soup was a hit and a lot easier to make the. The individual poppers and more people had opportunity to taste. The level of spicy was just right.
I don’t add this time. I would cook all the ingredients except for the cheeses on high pressure in the instant pot for 25 minutes with a quick release. Then switch the instant pot to the sauté setting and mix in the cream cheese. Heat until the cheese is melted and then stir in the cooked bacon from there. I hope you enjoy it!
Are there instant directions for this?
Fabulous!!! Love this creamy soup with some crusty sourdough.
It’s that time of the year and there’s no better way to celebrate cold weather than 8 quarts of Jalapeño Popper Chicken Chili (ours is really thick). I will save about 48oz and freeze the rest in quart size containers. It freezes well, make recipe completely, don’t omit anything, cool containers in fridge with loose lid. Once chili & container is cold, cap and place in freezer. I leave an inch at the top of chili before freezing. Whatever you do, don’t take a bite of the soup in the small containers before freezing. Just one dip of spoon, fork or knife with saliva on it will make your chili/soup flavorless and runny when you thaw it out.
I’m so glad you loved it!
I made this today. Its awesome. It’s a keeper. Everyone loved it. I drained the beans and made it like a stew. The house smelled heavenly while cooking
I am getting a new crockpot tomorrow and this is the very first thing I’m making. It looks amazing.
I would just add the cream cheese to the one that you are eating now and do not add it to the leftovers. I would add it when you heat it up to serve it. Thank you!
Hi! I’ve got this cooking now! I’ve doubled the batch and wondered how well it stores? If I should add the cream cheese to all of it now or store half of it without and add the cheese when We eat it later?? Thoughts?
This is a great recipe. I’ve made it several times and people love it.
Great recipe. I’m not a huge beans fan, so will probably cut that back to 1 can next time! Thanks!
