Follow The Directions

01

Step
7 mins

In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the chopped onion and celery over medium heat. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and continue cooking until fragrant, about 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.

02

Step
5 mins

Stir in the diced green chilies and chili powder. Add one can of cannellini beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld, about 5 minutes.

03

Step
1 mins

In a separate bowl, mash the remaining can of cannellini beans into a smooth paste. Add the mashed beans to the pot, followed by the chicken stock and cubed cooked chicken.

04

Step
25 mins

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to fully develop.

For a richer flavor, consider browning the cubed chicken in the pot before adding the other ingredients.
Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference. For a spicier chili, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
This chili is even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

    I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, so I omitted the green chilies and it was still delicious.
