Instructions

Pour the olive oil into a large pot or Dutch oven and warm it up over medium heat.
Sauté the onions and garlic for approximately 5 minutes, then introduce the chopped green chiles.
When the onions and garlic begin to caramelize, incorporate the diced chicken seasoned with Adobo and the juice of one lime. Stir continuously for five minutes.
Ensure each piece of chicken is lightly browned on all sides, then introduce the chicken broth, beans, corn, salt, pepper, cumin, oregano, and pepper flakes. Allow it to come to a boil.
Maintain a boil for about 3 minutes, then reduce the heat to a low simmer. Aim for occasional bubbling during the cooking process.
Let it simmer for 45 minutes before turning off the heat. Mix in the cream cheese thoroughly, then add the coconut cream and blend well.
Serve in a bowl, drizzle with a bit of lime juice, and top with avocado slices and crushed tortilla chips. Enjoy!

Notes

Marinate chicken in Adobo seasoning for 30 minutes before cooking for enhanced flavor.
For a creamier texture, use full-fat coconut cream instead of light coconut milk.
Increase pepper flakes or use spicier chili flakes for a spicy kick.
