White Bean Chicken Chili
2 TBS canola oil
1 yellow onion, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
2 lbs. chicken breast, cubed
2 cloves minced garlic
2 TBS chili powder
2 tsp dried oregano
4 tsp dried cumin
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cayenne
4 C chicken stock
1 15oz can of Cannellinni beans, drained and rinsed
1 15oz can of Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 C fresh cilantro, chopped
Shredded jalepeno jack cheese
In large pot over medium-high heat cook oil, onions, celery for 5 minutes.
Push onions and celery to sides of pot and add chicken, cook for 5 minutes.
Add garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and cayenne, cook/stir for 2 minutes.
Add chicken stock and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 minutes.
Stir in beans and cook for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat, stir in cilantro.
Ladle into bowls, top with cheese.
I prefer my chili a bit thicker, sometimes I'll sprinkle in a little flour towards the end of cooking to thicken if necessary.
This recipe never fails.
I've been looking for a good white chili recipe. I'll save this and try it sometime
