Instructions

Prepare your ingredients by dicing the onion and mincing the garlic. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the diced onion until translucent (about 5 minutes). Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add chicken pieces to the pot; season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned on all sides (approximately 6-8 minutes).
Pour in the chicken broth and mix in green chiles; stir well and bring to a simmer.
After about ten minutes of simmering, reduce heat and stir in cream cheese until melted completely into the broth.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with cumin or additional salt & pepper. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro or diced jalapeños.
