Fall is in the air - for some of the country! -- and some are definitely NOT! - But likely will be soon...
In my neck of the woods, we are most certainly entering the season of Comfort Food!
I am wanting to hear all of your go-to, 'hunker down on a chilly evening' recipes! Please share your favorites and we will all have some new good food to try out this fall and winter!
I will start us off! - One of my family's favorites (and it's SUPER easy) is White Chicken Chili - it is not tomato based and it is much more brothy than traditional chili. It is also happens to be quite healthful and light (BONUS!) - and warm you to your bones! There's hardly any dishes to clean up and you hopefully will have leftovers for the next day!
Ingredients
1 Package of the rotisserie chicken from Costco, or several cooked and shredded chicken breasts
1 Cup Chopped Onions
1 Finely chopped garlic clove (or garlic powder if you don't have any fresh garlic)
2 Teaspoons Olive Oil
2-3 15oz. Cans Great Northern Beans
2 cartons of chicken stock (I sometimes use more if I want more broth)
2 4 oz. Cans Chopped Green Chilies
1/2 Teaspoons Pepper
1 Teaspoon Oregano
1 Teaspoon Cumin
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (add more or less to your liking)
Instructions
In a large stock pot, saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil until translucent.
Add the chilis and allow to sweat down with the onions and garlic for a minute or two.
Add the spices, then add the chicken and stock.
Add in the beans and allow soup to simmer for about 30 minutes.
Enjoy!
