Melissa d'Arabian's White Chili with Quick-Roasted Garlic image

Provided by Melissa d'Arabian : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

12 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
12 shallots, chopped
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 Anaheim chile peppers
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup dry white wine
7 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 15-ounce can navy beans, undrained
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 10-ounce box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated monterey jack cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the roasted garlic: Toss the 12 cloves garlic with the olive oil and 1 teaspoon water in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover, leaving a vent, and microwave until soft, about 90 seconds. Let cool, covered.
  • Prepare the chili: Preheat the broiler. Cook the shallots in the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat until caramelized, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, place the chiles on a foil-lined broiler pan and broil until charred on all sides, turning, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let cool. Peel the peppers with your fingers or a paring knife. Stem, seed and chop.
  • Add the minced garlic to the shallots and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until toasted, about 3 minutes. Increase the heat to high and add the wine; simmer 2 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Add the roasted chiles, 6 cups broth, the chicken, chili powder, cayenne, beans, and salt and black pepper to taste. Return to a simmer.
  • Meanwhile, squeeze the soft pulp from the roasted garlic into a blender or food processor. Add the remaining 1 cup broth and process until smooth. Add to the chili and simmer until thickened, about 30 minutes, adding the spinach during the last 5 minutes. Add the paprika and cream and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the cheese.

WHITE CHICKEN CHILI FOR TWO



White Chicken Chili for Two image

This is one of our go-to recipes when it gets "cold" in Los Angeles (and by cold we mean like 50 or 60 degrees F). It's great to serve by itself or over rice, but we like to hollow out a large sourdough bread bowl to serve it in. It's a fun, comforting meal for the entire family.

Provided by Jet Tila

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound chicken breasts, sliced into 1/2-inch-by-2-inch strips
1 slice bacon, finely diced
1/2 medium yellow onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
One 15.5-ounce can white beans, drained
1/4 cup canned green New Mexico chiles or roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped fresh chiles
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Sourdough bowls, warmed, for serving (see Cook's Note), optional
Sliced scallions, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the spice mix: Combine the cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper and oregano in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • For the chili: Heat a medium pot or Dutch oven over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the oil. Add the chicken breast. Sear on all sides until browned but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  • Add the bacon to the same pot and cook, stirring, until rendered and lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the onions and garlic and reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the spice mix and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Stir in the flour until it's mixed and forms a roux, about 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth, whisking until no lumps remain. Raise the heat to high and stir in the beans, roasted chiles, sugar and the cooked chicken. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat until the mixture simmers. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chili is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and the chicken is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the sour cream. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Ladle into the sourdough bowls if using. Serve garnished with scallions.

Tips:

  • Soak the dried beans overnight. This will help them cook more evenly and quickly.
  • Use a variety of beans. This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Chili is a versatile dish that can handle a lot of different flavors.
  • Serve your chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped onions.
  • Make a big batch of chili and freeze it for later. This is a great way to have a delicious meal on hand when you're short on time.

Conclusion:

White chili with a kick is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's perfect for a casual meal with friends or family, or for a more formal gathering. With so many different ways to make it, there's sure to be a white chili recipe that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give white chili a try!
