WHITE BEAN CHICKEN CHILI

from The Wilkinsons
Recipe
Ingredients:
3 cans great northern beans, or other white beans, undrained
3 cans chicken broth
1 Tablespoon chicken bouillon
1 Tablespoon olive oil
2 onions, chopped
8 cloves garlic, chopped
7 oz. canned, diced green chilies or two 4 oz cans
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons oregano
1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
3 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
1 cup sour cream
3 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
chopped fresh parsley, garnish
 
Directions:


1.  In a large pot over medium heat, combine the beans, chicken broth, and bouillon. Let simmer.

2.  Meanwhile, saute onions and garlic in olive oil until onions are translucent, then add them to the pot.

3.  Add green chilies, cumin, oregano, cayenne pepper, and chicken to the pot. Simmer for 1 -2 hours.

4.  Just before serving add sour cream and cheese, stirring to completely combine. Top with chopped fresh parsley.

NOTE: We tried a batch of this chili without adding the sour cream and cheese, and it was still excellent! So if you are watching your fat calories, it's fine to use less of the sour cream and cheese or none at all!
