White Bean and Chicken Chili

Recipes »  Soups, Stews and Chili  »  Chili

Best served during the SuperBowl.

"A Tasty alternative to traditional Chili. This chili was easy to make and had wonderful taste and texture! It was spicy but not too hot...if your worried about too much heat, remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapenos. I used a combination of Cannellini and Great Northern beans, doubled the amount of chicken, and added some leftover Fire-roasted green Anaheim and Poblano chiles. We served the chili with sour cream, shredded Jack cheese and cornbread on the side." - sgrishka

White Bean and Chicken Chili Preparation

Saute onions, garlic and jalepenos in the olive oil till the onions are "almost" clear (transluscent). Add the diced chicken thighs next and cook them for 10-15 mins. Add the beans, chicken stock, green chilis, cumin and cayeene.

Simmer this very slowly on low heat for 2 hour....reducing it. Check for salt then chill immediately and refrigerate overnight.

Bring back to simmer and cook for an additional 3-4 hours. When it is the desired thickness, pour into bowls and add cheese and a dollup of sour cream

Nice flavor....Next time I would use low sodium chicken stock.

Also, I used 1 1/4 lbs of thighs because that's the size package the store had....It was about the right amount for my liking. Also, I only used three 7 oz cans of chili's and the amount seemed right on. You can always add more later.

Delicious! I used chicken breast instead of thighs to save on the amount of fat and once reduced transferred to a slow cooker and feasted all day long! I will definitely be making this recipe again and again....yummy!

This recipe is delicious !!! It was the hit of the party !!! Instead of olive oil I precooked a few strips of smokey bacon then cooked the onions etc in the grease and threw it all in the pot !!! Added a nice flavor !!

Hi ChefJay -- hope you don't mind, but we modified the title of this recipe to the more straightforward 'White Bean and Chicken Chili'. [I made edits to this recipe.]
