White Bean Chicken Chili

White Bean Chicken Chili

Linda Larsen
This delicious rich chili takes just 20 minutes from start to finish. Top it with some green salsa and crumbled blue tortilla chips. You can certainly add more vegetables to the recipe - I like chopped green bell peppers.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 2 (15 oz.) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 4 oz. can chopped green chilies, undrained
  • 1/4 tsp. white pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp. flour

Preparation:

Place one can of drained beans in heavy saucepan and mash slightly. Add remaining ingredients except sour cream and flour. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer soup for 15 minutes. In small bowl combine sour cream and flour and mix with wire whisk. Spoon in some of the hot broth from the soup and mix until smooth. Add this mixture to the soup and stir. Cook and stir for a few minutes until thickened, and serve along with more sour cream to top chili.

Excellent, easy chili, Member tl72074

This recipe is perfect for dinner on a busy week night - The ingredients and preparation are simple and the results are delicious. I've made it twice and gotten compliments! The recipe says to serve with salsa chips, but I served with small whole grain rolls as an alternative. Also, this chili is generally mild, but you can make it spicier by adding some green jalapeņo hot sauce. Yummy!
