White Chicken Chili

Play with the seasonings as you like.  If you like it spicier add more chilies and/or cayenne.  If I were making fajitas I would add lime juice and onion powder so it's nearly the same chicken meat and you could use the same here
.


White Chicken Chili

olive oil
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
1-1/2 t cumin
couple dashes dried red pepper (cayenne) (more as you like)
1/2 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1/2 cup diced onion
2 - 15 ounce cans Great Northern beans (white), undrained
2 cups chicken broth
4 ounce can green chilies, undrained
up to 1/2 cup sour cream

In a medium bowl add about 1/2 Tablespoon of olive oil, seasonings, and chicken.  Turn to mix and coat. For best flavor grill chicken. Cut into nice size chunks.

Meanwhile, cook onions in a little bit of olive oil until soft.  Add broth and beans.
Stir in chunked chicken and cook for 20 minutes.  This will soften the beans a bit more and thicken your soup. 
 Stir in sour cream.
To serve, top with tortilla strips and more sour cream if you like.

    1. It's a nice change from the typical tomato based chili.
