Ingredient List
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
- 5 1/4 cups Progresso™ chicken broth (from two 32-oz cartons)
- 2 cans (15 oz each) Progresso™ cannellini beans, drained
- 2 cans (4 oz) Old El Paso™ Chopped Green Chiles, drained
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Dash ground red pepper (cayenne), if desired
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (6 oz)
- Chopped fresh cilantro, if desired
Preparation
- In 4-quart saucepan or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic and chicken; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink.
- Stir in remaining ingredients except cheese and cilantro. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 to 15 minutes to blend flavors, stirring occasionally.
- To serve, spoon chili into soup bowls. Top each serving with cheese and cilantro.
Tips
- White chili--usually made with white beans, chicken and chilies instead of red beans, beef and tomatoes--is still packed with plenty of spicy chili flavor. You can add more kick by increasing the amount of red pepper sauce.
- Keep a package of frozen diced cooked chicken in the freezer. It's a lifesaver when you're in a hurry and don't have time to cut chicken into pieces.
