Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering, then sauté onion for 4 minutes, or until it begins to brown and soften. Add garlic and sauté another 30 seconds or so.

Add in broth, salsa, tomatoes, beans, corn, spices and cilantro, then bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and stir in shredded pork.

Cover pot and simmer for 15 minutes.

Whisk together cornstarch and water; add to soup and stir to thicken broth, a bit.

Stir in lime juice and serve.

Garnish as desired.
