Ingredients:

2-3 tbsp olive oil

1 1/2-2 onions

4 cloves garlic, minced

6 cooked boneless chicken breasts

4 (14.5 oz) cans chicken broth

1 small can chopped green chilis

1 can Rotel

1 can diced tomatoes

2 tsp ground cumin

3 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp cayenne

1/2 tsp chipotle

5 (14.5 oz) cans Great Northern white beans, undrained

1-1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

 

Step 1

Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onions and sautee for about 7 minutes. Turn down heat and add garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes making sure garlic does not burn.

 

Step 2

Add chicken, spices, tomatoes, and broth (reserve about 1 cup of broth). Bring mixture to a boil, turn heat down a little and allow to simmer for about 15 minutes. Pour the juice off the top of the can and add beans to chicken mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for another 15 minutes. If more broth is needed, add now, remembering you will be adding whipping cream before serving.

 

Step 3

If you plan to serve on the day you make the chili, add whipping cream; simmer for 5 more minutes.

This is better made a day or two before to allow flavors to meld. Reheat, add extra broth if needed. Add whipping cream; simmer for 5 minutes.

Serve with tortilla chips, salsa, sour cream, cheese, cilantro, green onions, and a squeeze of lime juice.
