This recipe was passed down from a friend, and now it is one of our favorites! It's great to make whenever there is left over chicken or turkey around! We pray for colder weather in California just so we can make this soup! You can substitute additional diced tomatoes for the tomatillos. If you would like the soup to be spicier, you can add some red chili flakes or salsa. Serve with these toppings for people to choose from: limes, cilantro, cheese, avocado, sour cream, and tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans: Soaking the beans overnight (or for at least 4 hours) helps to soften them and reduce the cooking time. Soaking also helps to remove some of the gas-producing compounds in the beans, making them easier to digest.
  • Use a variety of beans: This recipe calls for a combination of cannellini beans and Great Northern beans, but you can use any type of white bean you like. Black beans, kidney beans, or chickpeas would all be good substitutes.
  • Don't overcook the beans: The beans should be cooked until they are tender, but not mushy. Overcooked beans will become too soft and break down in the chili.
  • Use a good quality chicken broth: The chicken broth is an important flavor component in this chili, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with real chicken and has a rich flavor.
  • Add your favorite toppings: Once the chili is cooked, you can top it with your favorite toppings. Shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, and cilantro are all popular choices.
