Thickened with peanuts like some Veracruz sauces, and made with the classic Mexican technique of blending and then frying the sauce ingredients, this mild chili makes for an earthy modern-day meal. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil. Chop the chicken into bite-size pieces and add to the saucepan. Brown the chicken till done, about 10-12 minutes. Add all canned ingredients, then all the spices. Stir well. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with sour cream, cheese, chives or anything you would put on chili.
use less chili pepper if you prefer milder heat levels. Coconut cream is available in Asian markets and some supermarkets; if you can't find it, here's the perfect substitute: Open a can of coconut milk without shaking it first, and use the thick cream at the top plus enough of the milk to make one cup. It's time for a recipe. Lately, between playing free rice and writing my novel (I'm actually using my outline and writing five pages a day), I've been been reading recipes and trying to come up with the perfect white ...
... chicken chili.
I'm ready to share this one, although if you make it, you should feel free to make alterations to it. Every time I make it, I love it more than I did the last time, and I suspect that's because I never make it the same way twice. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the onions until translucent and then add the chicken, stirring occasionally until all the pieces are evenly brown. Set aside. In a Dutch oven, over medium heat, bring the chicken broth and green chile peppers to a boil. Stir in the cans of cannellini beans, corn, garlic, cumin, crushed red pepper, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Stir in the chicken and onion mixture.
Let cook for a long time, at least a half hour, and then add the cream of chicken soup. I usually put the sour cream in it after it's cooked, although if it seems to need thickening, I add more. I apologize for the can of cream of chicken soup. I usually hate recipes that call for canned soup, but once I made this recipe and left it out, andwell, it didn't taste as good. I'm sorry to say this, but it's true. I suppose a more ambitious person could create their own cream of chicken stuff that would be just as good, but this recipe has the advantage of being quick, easy, and tastes wonderful on a cold evening. And it's even better the next night! And by the third night, it's the best thing you ever put in your mouth!
