3 garlic cloves -- minced
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano -- (leaves) crumbled

2 (14-oz cans) fat-free chicken broth -- (less-sodium)
1/2 cup water
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (10-ounce) box frozen corn kernels

OPTIONAL THICKENER. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer for 1 minute until the soup thickens slightly.
RETURN THE CHICKEN to the pan; heat through.
