Description

A comforting and protein-packed white chicken chili that comes together in about 30 minutes, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 can of white beans (cannellini or great northern), rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • Chopped fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the cooked chicken, white beans, corn, chicken broth, cumin, chili powder, oregano, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Bring to a simmer, then reduce to low heat and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, cook on low in a slow cooker for 4-6 hours, or use an Instant Pot on high pressure for 10 minutes with quick release.
  4. Once cooked, stir in the Greek yogurt or sour cream until everything is creamy and combined.
  5. Serve hot, topped with freshly chopped cilantro.
