1. brown cut up chicken, onion, and garlic in butter until chicken is no longer pink.(use dutch oven)
If using pre-cooked frozen chicken breasts, thaw, then cut into bite sized pieces. Cook onion and garlic in butter til onion begins to carmelize, then add pre-cooked chicken pieces.
2. Dissolve the bouillion in hot water. Add to pan along with cumin; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.
3. Add half & half, cheese, corn, chilies, roasted red pepper, tomato paste and hot pepper sauce. Cook and stir over low heat, until the cheese is melted. Stir in chopped tomato. Serve immediately. Garnish with Cilantro, if desired.
** This is great served with warm flour tortillas or Parker house style rolls.
