WHITE CHICKEN CHILI



White Chicken Chili image

Made with a rotisserie chicken, this hearty white chicken chili is a one-pot meal that you can have on the table in under an hour.

Categories     Dinner

Time 55m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 (14.5-ounce) cans white beans, rinsed and drained
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced (see note)
2 medium poblano peppers, seeded and diced (see note)
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1½ teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
Salt
1 rotisserie chicken, skin removed and shredded (about 4 cups)
¾ cup frozen corn
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, from one lime, plus more to taste
¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro
Sour cream
Crushed tortilla chips
Shredded cheddar or Pepper Jack cheese
Lime wedges

Steps:

  • In a food processor, blend ½ of the beans (1 can) with 1 cup of the chicken broth. Set aside both the puréed beans and the remaining whole beans.
  • Add the oil to a large pot or Dutch oven and heat it over medium-high heat. Add the onion, jalapeño pepper and poblano peppers and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for one minute more. Add the cumin, coriander and ancho chili powder and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for one minute more to toast the spices. Add the chicken broth, puréed beans and ½ teaspoon of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
  • Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken, reserved whole beans, corn, and lime juice; bring back to a simmer and cook until everything is heated through, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and lime juice, if necessary. Stir in the cilantro. (Note that the broth will be somewhat soupy -- that's how it is supposed to be. It thickens the longer it sits; see note below.) Ladle the chili into bowls and serve with sour cream, crushed tortilla chips, and lime wedges.
  • Note: The seeds and ribs in the peppers hold all of the heat. I don't use them to keep the chili mild and family-friendly, but if you like a spicy chili, save them and stir some in at the end. (If you do touch the seeds, be sure to wash your hands well and avoid touching your eyes.)
  • Note: The chili thickens as it sits. If you make it ahead of time, you will probably need to add more broth or water to thin it out.
  • Note: Nutrition info does not include optional toppings.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The chili can be frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat it on the stovetop over medium-low heat until hot. (The chili will thicken up some when frozen, so you'll likely need to add some broth when reheating.)

Provided by Jessica Fisher

Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion (for 1 cup chopped)
1 4-ounce can green chiles (chopped)
3 clove garlic (minced)
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp ground cloves
4 15-ounce cans Great Northern beans (drained)
2 cup chicken stock
2 tbsp lime juice
2 cup chicken (cooked and cubed)
4 oz jack cheese (shredded)
toppings for chili (: chopped cilantro, salsa, sour cream, additional cheese)

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the onion and sauté until clear, about five minutes over medium-high heat. Add the green chiles, garlic, cumin, oregano, cayenne, and ground cloves. Cook for about a minute until fragrant.
  • Add the beans, stock, and lime juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • To make the chicken chili more flavorful, use a combination of white and dark meat chicken. Dark meat chicken has more flavor than white meat chicken, so it will help to give the chili a richer taste. In addition, use ancho chile powder instead of chili powder. Ancho chile powder has a smoky and slightly sweet flavor that will add depth to the chili.
  • To make the chicken chili more creamy, use a combination of heavy cream and sour cream. Both heavy cream and sour cream will help to thicken the chili and give it a creamy texture. If you want to make the chili even creamier, you can also add a block of cream cheese. Cream cheese will melt into the chili and make it extra creamy and delicious.
  • To make the chicken chili more spicy, add a jalapeño pepper or two. Jalapeño peppers are a great way to add heat to a dish without making it too spicy. If you want to make the chili even spicier, you can also add a serrano pepper or a habanero pepper. Just be careful not to add too much pepper, or the chili will be too spicy to enjoy.
  • To make the chicken chili more cheesy, add a cup or two of shredded cheese. You can use any type of cheese you like, but cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and pepper Jack cheese are all popular choices. If you want to make the chili even cheesier, you can also add a layer of cheese on top before baking it in the oven.

Conclusion:

White chicken chili is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is perfect for a cold winter day or a hot summer night. With its creamy texture, flavorful spices, and tender chicken, white chicken chili is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy recipe, give white chicken chili a try. You won't be disappointed.
