Ingredients
- 400 g Chicken Cooked shredded
- 400 g White Beans Can, drained and rinsed
- 1 medium Onion Finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic Minced
- 200 g Green Chiles Can, diced
- 1 tsp Ground Cumin
- 1 tsp Oregano Dried
- 1/2 tsp Ground Coriander
- 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper Adjust to taste
- 750 ml Chicken Broth
- 250 ml Sour Cream
- 100 g Monterey Jack Cheese Grated
- Salt and Black Pepper Adjust to taste
- Cilantro Fresh for garnish
Instructions
- Heat some oil in a pan over medium-high heat and season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Cook the chicken for approximately 6-7 minutes per side or until they are thoroughly cooked and no longer pink in the middle.
- Take them out of the pan and allow them to cool slightly before using two forks to shred the cooked chicken.
- In a large pot, heat some oil over medium heat and add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion turns translucent.
- Add the ground cumin, dried oregano, ground coriander, and cayenne pepper, and cook for an additional minute until the mixture becomes aromatic.
- Add the shredded chicken, white beans, diced green chiles, and chicken broth to the pot, stirring thoroughly to combine.
- Allow the chili to simmer for about 20-25 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. If it thickens too much, you can add a little more chicken broth.
- Stir in the sour cream and grated Monterey Jack cheese, continuing to cook for a few more minutes until the cheese has melted, and the chili becomes creamy.
- Season the chili with salt and black pepper to your taste, and adjust the spiciness by adding more cayenne pepper if desired.
- Serve the chili hot, garnished with fresh cilantro leaves.
