Can you use leftover chicken?

This fajita soup is an excellent way to use your leftover chicken. You can replace the poached chicken with grilled, roasted, or boiled chicken and the soup will still taste fantastic.

What can you replace the chicken with?

If you’d like a beef fajita soup, you can use pre-cooked minced beef, grilled steak, or pulled brisket. You can also substitute the chicken for pre-cooked shrimp if you are in a seafood mood. For all our vegetarian/vegan friends, you can add pan-grilled tofu, mushroom, or a mix of both; but make sure to use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

Is this recipe Dairy-free?

Yes, it is. This Keto chicken fajita soup is perfect for people who are intolerant to dairy. It is also an excellent option if you are trying to cut back on dairy but don’t know where to start.

Can you freeze this recipe?

Absolutely! It is always exciting to have a freezer-friendly recipe on hand. Next time you prepare it, double the quantity and freeze the excess into individual portions for up to 1 month. To consume, place the frozen soup in a saucepan over low heat and let it thaw slowly. Then bring it up to a simmer and serve with your favorite topping. This soup will have your back on busy days.
