White Chicken Chili For Two Recipes

Steps:

• In a skillet, saute the onions, jalapeno and garlic in 1-1/2 teaspoons butter until crisp-tender. Add the sage, cumin and ginger; cook for 1 minute. Add chicken; cook and stir until lightly browned., In a small saucepan, melt remaining butter. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually add the broth and milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until thickened. Add beans. Pour over chicken mixture. Cook over medium heat until heated through. Sprinkle cheese on each serving.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook chicken, onion, and garlic in hot oil until the chicken is browned completely, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Remove the chicken to a cutting board, cut into 1-inch pieces, and return to the Dutch oven; add chicken broth, cannellini, green chilies, oregano, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Divide cilantro among 4 bowls. Ladle chili over cilantro and top with cheese. Season with salt to serve.

Steps:

• For the spice mix: Combine the cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper and oregano in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For the chili: Heat a medium pot or Dutch oven over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the oil. Add the chicken breast. Sear on all sides until browned but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the bacon to the same pot and cook, stirring, until rendered and lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the onions and garlic and reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the spice mix and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Stir in the flour until it's mixed and forms a roux, about 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth, whisking until no lumps remain. Raise the heat to high and stir in the beans, roasted chiles, sugar and the cooked chicken. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat until the mixture simmers. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chili is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and the chicken is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Stir in the sour cream. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Ladle into the sourdough bowls if using. Serve garnished with scallions.

Steps:

• Season chicken liberally with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking.
• Add chicken, skin side down, and cook without moving until skin is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Using thongs, turn chicken and brown lightly on other side, about 2 minutes.
• While chicken is browning, remove and discard ribs and seeds for 2 jalapenos and mince flesh.
• In food processor, process half of poblano chilies, Anaheim chilies, and onions until consistency of chunky salsa, ten to twelve 1-second pulses, scraping down sides of workbowl halfway through.
• Transfer mixture to medium bowl. Repeat with remaining poblano chilies, Anaheim chilies, and onions and combine with first batch (do not wash food processor blade or workbowl).
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from Dutch oven (adding additional vegetable oil if necessary) and reduce heat to medium.
• Add minced poblanos, chili-onion mixture, garlic, cumin, coriander, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Cover and cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables soften, about 10 minutes.
• Remove pot from heat.
• Transfer 1 cup cooked vegetable mixture to now-empty food processor workbowl.
• Add 1 cup beans and 1 cup broth and process until smooth, about 20 seconds.
• Add vegetable-bean mixture, remaining 2 cups broth, and chicken breasts to Dutch oven and bring to boil over medium-high heat.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until chicken registers 160 degrees (175 degrees if substituting thighs) on instant-read thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Using tongs, transfer chicken to large plate.
• Stir in remaining beans and continue to simmer, uncovered, until beans are heated through and chili has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Mince remaining jalapeno, reserving and mincing ribs and seeds and set aside.
• When cool enough to handle, shred chicken into bite-sized pieces, discarding bones.
• Stir shredded chicken, lime juice, cilantro, scallions, and remaining minced jalapeno (with seeds if desired) into chili and return to simmer.
• Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper to serve.
