Ingredients

  • 1 pound dried navy beans
  • 5 cups chicken stock
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 3/4 cup diced onion
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped green chiles (fresh or canned)
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
  • Pinch red pepper flakes

Directions

Rinse beans well, cover with cool water, and soak for 2 hours. Drain. Put the beans in large pot with the chicken stock and bring to a boil over high heat.

In a saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, and chiles and saute for 5 minutes. Add chile mixture to pot with beans.

    WONDERFUL!!! I didnt think my kids would eat it but the whole pot was gone in one night my mother-in-law even loved it. Used canned beans instead of dried beans and cooked the chicken breasts in the broth with the onion and spices and reused it for the chili. Added some corn bread YUM!

    I have been trying to provide my family with healthier options but at the same time not feeling deprived. so they wanted chili. I picked this recipe and it was really good. I work with dried beans a lot and opted to soak them over night in water and to change the water once. I know the peppers were a lot so, I used 2 fresh poblano peppers and 2 serranos.. It was very flavorful. My husband and I love spinach, I took a handful of baby spinach and put it in the bottom of both of our bowls before serving and it wilted on its own while giving us a little bit more nutrients. :
