For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth or stock. Adjust the amount of chipotle peppers and cayenne pepper to control the level of spiciness. Feel free to add other vegetables like corn, bell peppers, or zucchini to the soup. This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop.
