Sauté the Vegetables:
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and diced jalapeños, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Simmer the Soup:
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Add the smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
Once the broth is simmering, add the shredded chicken and continue to cook for 5 minutes to heat through.
Make it Creamy:
Add the cream cheese and heavy cream to the pot. Stir until the cream cheese has melted and the soup becomes smooth and creamy.
Gradually stir in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, allowing them to melt into the soup.
Adjust Seasoning:
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or spices if desired. If you prefer a spicier soup, add more jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
Serve:
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions, crumbled bacon, and a handful of tortilla chips or crackers for crunch.
