Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cubed
- 1 medium white onion diced
- 4 medium celery ribs diced
- 1 medium green bell pepper diced
- 4 teaspoons minced garlic about 4 cloves
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 3 (15 ounce cans) white cannellini beans drained
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 (4 ounce can) diced green chiles
- 8 ounces cream cheese cubed
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed chicken and cook for about 5 minutes, or until browned on all sides.
- Add the diced onion, celery, and bell pepper to the pot. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
- Stir in 4 teaspoons minced garlic, 2 teaspoons ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Pour in 4 cups chicken broth, drained cannellini beans, 1 cup frozen corn, and 1 (4 ounce can) diced green chiles. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the cubed cream cheese and continue stirring until fully melted and incorporated into the chili.
- Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy plain or with your choice of toppings.
Notes
- SUGGESTED TOPPINGS: sliced jalapeno, diced avocado, shredded Monterey jack cheese, sour cream, and freshly squeezed lime juice.
- SLOW COOKER INSTRUCTIONS: You don’t need to use the olive oil if you are going to make this in a slow cooker. Add the other ingredients to the slow cooker but omit the cream cheese. Cook on low for about 6-8 hours. Add the cream cheese in about 30 minutes before you are going to eat—long enough for it to melt completely in.
