Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 (4 oz) cans diced green chiles
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 2 (15 oz) cans great northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • Salt and pepper
  • Fresh cilantro, for serving

Method
 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook 5 minutes until soft, then stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds.
  2. Add green chiles, cumin, and oregano; stir and cook 1 minute.
  3. Pour in broth and beans. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Stir in shredded chicken and simmer 5 minutes until hot.
  5. Remove from heat, let cool 1 minute, then stir in sour cream until smooth and creamy.
  6. Ladle into bowls, top with cilantro, and serve.

Notes

If the chili thickens too much after sitting, thin with a splash of broth when reheating. Taste for salt before serving, as the beans and chicken absorb it.
