White Chicken And Bean Chili
Taken from my “Favorites” folder!
A can of drained corn kernels is a great addition to add in, serve with a crusty loaf of bread
Servings 6
INGREDIENTS:
oil, as needed
1 tablespoon of butter
1 pound boneless skinless thighs or chicken breasts, cut into about 3/4-inch cubes
1 medium onion, chopped
4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped (garlic lovers can use more)
1 teaspoon crushed chili flakes, or to taste
1-1/4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano (rubbed between fingers to release the flavor)
1 teaspoon seasoned salt (more if needed)
2 (15-1/2 ounce) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup sour cream (low fat is okay do not use fat-free)
1/2 cup heavy (33-35%) whipping cream, unwhipped
fresh grated Parmesan cheese, optional
INSTRUCTIONS:—————————-
In a large saucepan heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat (using enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the saucepan).
Add in saute the chicken, onion; cook until the chicken is no longer pink.
Add in garlic, chili flakes, cumin, oregano and seasoned salt; cook stirring about 2-3 minutes.
Add the beans, broth and green chilies; bring to a boil stirring constantly.

This is always a crowd pleaser at our house, Kitten. We’ve always started with cooked chicken (usually leftover) and have never added cream, but it sounds wonderful. Thanks for the freshest of the fresh version.
Mary is that you from my forum?
Sure is, Kitten. I’ll add an “MS” to future posts on your blog so that you’ll know me!
