White Chicken Chili

This white chicken chili cooks up fast and tastes great! You could make it milder by leaving out the green chilies.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 - 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts or equivalent tenders, cut into bite sized pieces
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 15- oz cans white beans, usually I use cannelini or great northern beans
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 4 oz can of diced green chilies
  • 1 Tbs of cumin
  • a few shakes of cayenne
  • black pepper to taste
  • grated Jack cheese to serve at the table
  • sour cream to serve at the table

Instructions

  • Saute the chopped onion in a bit of olive oil.
  • Add the chicken pieces to the pan with the onions after you've cut them up.
  • Add the chopped garlic.
  • Rinse and drain the beans.
  • Add the broth, beans, green chilies, cumin, cayenne and black pepper to the pan. Cover and simmer until the chicken is done, usually about 10 minutes.
  • Grate the cheese while the chicken is finishing and put the sour cream in a small bowl to pass at the table.
