Chicken Enchilada Chili

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbs olive oil

  • 1 onion, diced

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 6 oz can diced fire-roasted green chilies, not drained

  • 1 lb chicken breasts

  • 4 cups chicken stock

  • 2 14 oz cans green enchilada sauce

  • 2 15 oz cans Great Northern Beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

  • 1/3 cup diced cilantro, plus more for garnish if desired

  • 2 Tbs cornmeal

  • Optional Garnishes Shredded cheese

  • Sour cream

  • Tortilla chips

Canned enchilada sauce makes for an easy meal.

Directions

  • Heat oil in a large pot. Add onion and cook for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and cook an additional 2 minutes. Stir in diced green chilies and liquid.
  • Add chicken to pot and pour in the chicken stock, enchilada sauce, and beans. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer at least 30 to 45 minutes, until chicken is fully cooked. (Or simmer all day, if you want.)
  • Remove chicken and shred or dice. Return to the pot along with the salt, pepper, and cilantro. Stir to combine then stir in cornmeal just until thickened.
  • Garnish individual bowls of chili with shredded cheese, sour cream, and extra cilantro, if desired. Serve with tortilla chips, if desired.
