White Chicken Chili – New Recipe

I have definitely been on a chili kick lately.  I tried a new recipe this weekend for White Chicken Chili.  It’s consistency is not as thick of as I would have liked, but it was delicious.

White Chicken Chili Recipe
(Adapted from this recipe: http://feelhungry.com/white-chicken-chili-recipe)

Ingredients
• 2 pounds of chicken breast, boneless, skinless
• 1 can of white kidney beans
• 1 can of red kidney beans
• 1 can of pinto beans
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 2 jalapenos, chopped
• 1 can of diced tomatoes (large can, drained)
• 3 cloves minced garlic (I used Dorot’s Garlic Cubes.)
• oregano
• salt
• chili powder
• red pepper flakes
• 32 oz. chicken stock

Instructions
1. Boil chicken breasts in water.
2. When the chicken is tender, remove from pot and use two forks to shred the chicken.
3. In a crock pot, place the beans, onion, peppers, tomatoes, garlic, chicken broth, seasonings and the chicken.
4. Cook on high settings for about 5 to 6 hours.
5. Garnish with sour cream (I used the light variety) and cheddar cheese.

I calculated this to be about 4 points per cup.  Full of protein, fiber and all kind of deliciousness!
