This is a healthy, satisfying soup that we love often throughout the cold winter months. It has lots of flavor and yet is mild enough that even children enjoy it.
Creamy White Chili
1 lb. chicken breast, cubed (2-3 cups) *
1 med. onion, chopped
1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
2 cans (15 1/2 oz. each) Great Northern Beans, rinsed & drained
1 can (14 1/2 oz.) chicken broth
2 cans (4 oz.) chopped chilies, optional
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. orgeno
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 c. sour cream
1/2 c. heavy whipping cream or milk
In a large saucepan over medium heat, saute chicken, onion & garlic powder in oil until chicken is no longer pink. Add beans, broth, chilies and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and cream. Serve immediately.
Yield: 7 servings
* I use frozen chopped chicken (as I describe here) and just eliminate the sauteing part and the vegetable oil. We love it just as much and it is much faster.
