Instructions

  1. In a large pot set over medium-high heat, add the olive oil, onion, and jalapeno and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, oregano, cumin, and chili powder and cook for 1 minute more.
  2. Add the can of green chilis, chicken breasts, and chicken broth to the pot. Add salt and pepper to taste. Bring the pot to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer covered for 10-12 minutes. The chicken should be tender and cooked through.
  3. Transfer the chicken to a plate and use a fork to shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Add the shredded chicken back to the pot along with the white beans and corn. Simmer over low heat, uncovered, for 10 more minutes.
  5. Remove the pot from the heat, stir in the sour cream, and squeeze in the juice of 2 limes.
  6. Serve while hot, garnished with avocado, cilantro, or tortilla chips if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Store white chicken chili in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • To make this more or less spicy, add more or less green chilis or jalapenos.
  • To make your chili creamier, add an extra spoonful of sour cream, or ¼ cup of whole milk.
  • Nutritional information does not include optional garnishes.
