For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth. If you prefer a thicker soup, you can mash some of the kidney beans with a fork before adding them to the pot. Adjust the amount of green chile peppers to control the level of spiciness. This soup can be made ahead of time and reheated. The flavors will meld and deepen as it sits. Feel free to add other vegetables such as zucchini, carrots, or celery. For a vegetarian version, omit the chicken and use vegetable broth.
