Chicken Chili

One of my favorite things to make in Fall, Winter, whenever its cold is chicken chili. I fell in love with it at Atlanta Bread Company. I could eat it for days, even weeks. Actually its what we are eating almost everyday this week! The best thing is its a little different everytime I make it! I have a general guideline of what I put in the chili but I never measure it so I couldn't write down a true recipe. That way everyone can make the chili to their own liking!

Chicken Chili

1 can each Black Beans, White Beans, Kidney Beans (drained)

4 cans dice tomatos

1 small can tomato paste

chicken
chicken broth (if its too thick)

diced onions (3 small)

diced green peppers (2)

diced jalapeno peppers (1-2)

pickled jalapeno peppers (handful)

garlic

chili powder

cumin

red pepper flakes

hot sauce
Cheese (garnish)
Sour Cream (garnish)

Saute the onions, peppers, and garlic. Dump everything in a pot and simmer for a couple of hours. You don't have to let it cook that long but I think that it really makes everything good and blended that way!


p.s. This recipe makes a lot! But it can easily be frozen and saved for later. This is a very chunky (filling) chili so if you want more "soup" you'll have to add tomato sauce or more paste and broth.
