Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the onion to the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes or until just softened.
- Add the chicken in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
- Stir in the garlic and jalapeno and cook for one minute.
- Add the green chiles, cumin, coriander, oregano and chicken broth, along with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Bring the soup to a simmer. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
- Add the cannellini beans, sour cream and cream cheese. Turn the heat to low and simmer, stirring constantly, until the cheese has melted and soup is creamy.
- Remove the chili from the heat. Stir in the lime juice. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired.
- Serve immediately with toppings of your choice.
Notes
- If you have leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken on hand, you can use that instead of sautéing fresh chicken breast. Just add the already cooked chicken when you add the beans to the soup.
- I remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeno to make a mild chili that’s not too spicy for the kids. If you prefer more heat, you can leave some of the ribs and seeds in the pepper.
