White Bean Chicken Chili

White Bean Chicken Chili

I love this recipe!  I could eat the whole pot by myself!

Topped with some cheddar cheese and crushed tortilla chips...um-um-good!

I use a rotisserie chicken for this one; 1/2 a rotisseries chicken will get you the 2 cups of cooked chicken you need.

Ingredients:

2 Tablespoons butter
½ cup chopped onion (about 1 small onion)
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups cooked chicken, cubed
1 can (15-16 oz.) great northern or cannellini beans, undrained
2 cups chicken broth or stock
½ Tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup water

Directions:

1.  Melt butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.  Add onion and garlic; cook until onion is soft and translucent.

2.  Add remaining ingredients except cornstarch and water.  Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low.  Cover and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3.  Stir cornstarch into water; add to chili mixture.  Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.  Remove from heat; allow to stand 5 minutes before serving.

Serve with tortilla chips and shredded cheese, if desired.
