Chicken Chili

This chicken chili is loaded with flavor, and it makes a great fall or winter meal with cornbread or biscuits.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 boneless chicken breast halves, diced
  • 12 to 16 ounces chicken sausage, such as chicken apple sausage or chicken other smoked chicken or turkey sausage
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cans (about 16 ounces each) Great Northern Beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 1/2 cups tomatillo salsa
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes with juice, fire-roasted, chili-style, or plain
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped jalapeno peppers, or mild chile peppers
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Dash cayenne pepper, optional

Preparation:

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, diced chicken, and sliced sausage; sauté until onions are tender and chicken is cooked through. Put the drained beans in a 4 to 6-quart slow cooker; add the skillet mixture and all remaining ingredients except cilantro. Cover and cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours or LOW for 6 to 8 hours. Sprinkle with cilantro just before serving.
Serves 6.

"I finally started using my crock pot. And this recipe is amazing and so adaptable. I used taco seasoned turkey and cajun chicken sausages. I dropped the tomatillo because my crock pot is too small to accommodate the extra ingredient. But the reviews are right. This recipe has a tremendous amount of flavor. I tried it again and mixed the type of beans. Maybe next time I'll even try adding a more cajun style and add some okra. This is definitely going to be one of my signature dishes."
