White Chicken Chili

Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cans (14 ounces each) chicken broth (can use low sodium to make it healthier)
• 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 3 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) great northern beans, drained, divided
• Chopped jalapeno pepper, optional

Directions

• In a Dutch oven over medium heat, cook chicken and onion in oil until lightly browned. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the broth, chilies, cumin, oregano and cayenne; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low. With a potato masher, mash one can of beans until smooth. Add to saucepan. Add remaining beans to saucepan. Simmer for 20-30 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and onion is tender.
• If you like a creamier chicken chili, stir in plain Greek yogurt a few minutes before serving and heat through.

• Top each serving jalapeno pepper if desired.

• Yield: 10 servings (2-1/2 quarts).
