Fresh poblano and serrano chiles are to thank for this chili's vibrant, warming flavor. It's the perfect dish to serve on a chilly winter night when you need a hearty bowl of chicken, veggies, and beans. The chili also comes together in just one pot for added convenience and super-easy cleanup. As well as the chiles, chicken, and beans, it features a medley of onions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, coriander, oregano, salsa verde, lime juice, and fresh cilantro. You can freeze any leftovers in 1-cup containers for easy, portion-controlled lunches for another time. Leftovers make a great filling for soft tacos or burritos.

Tips:

  • Make sure to use a large pot or Dutch oven, as this chili recipe makes a lot. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • If you don't have any roasted poblano peppers on hand, you can roast your own. Simply place a poblano pepper on a baking sheet and broil it in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the skin is blistered and blackened. Then, transfer the pepper to a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let it steam for 10 minutes, then peel off the skin and remove the seeds.
  • For a spicier chili, add a teaspoon or two of chili powder or cayenne pepper. You can also add a can of diced green chilies or a finely chopped jalapeño pepper.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, or cilantro.
