Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 1 small onion diced
- 2 carrots peeled and diced
- 2 cloves small garlic
- 4 cups navy beans or other beans
- 3 cups shredded chicken
- 3 lbs tomatoes skin and seeds removed
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 tsp salt (or more, depending on broth)
- 1 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 3/4 tsp cumin
- Sour cream, grated cheese, and/or crushed tortilla chips for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot, saute the onion in the olive oil over medium-low heat until translucent.
- Add the carrots and continue cooking until the carrots are soft. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Add the beans, chicken, tomatoes, chicken broth, and seasonings to the pot. Bring just to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Taste the chili and adjust the seasonings to your taste. No two pots of chili should ever be exactly the same.
- Serve warm over rice, and garnish if desired. Refrigerate or freeze the leftovers.
