White Chilli


This is from my mother's family cookbook... Enjoy!

WHITE CHILLI

1 # navy beans or 2 jar of prepared beans – drained and rinsed
Cook 3 cups cut up chicken breast in water – save broth (will need 6 cups of broth later)
Cook 1 Tbl olive oil, 2 onions, 2-3 garlic cloves, 1 ½ oregano pepper, 1 tsp. Cumin, dash of Tabasco sauce and 2 4 oz. of chopped chili peppers 1-2 cans chicken broth (approx. 40 oz)

Put in slow cooker. 1-2 hours. Optional – add 1 ½-2 cups braided Monterey jack cheese till melted. This can be added when serving and can be left out.

Note: You could use prepared Roasted Chicken with bones removed. I use the bones and what I have left after deboning along with other vegetables such as Carrots, Corn Cobs, Onions, Celery, etc when making broth.

  1. Yep, pretty much how we make it, except we cheat and use a packet of white chicken chili mix. :) So yummy!
