White Chili

This recipe was given to me from a friend (Amber Law). She always won the chili cook off awards at church. I took it to our ward chili feed this year and there was nothing left.


4 cans white beans, rinsed & drained
1 med. onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 c. chicken broth
1 tsp tabasco
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 small can green chilies
2-4 chicken breasts, cooked & cubed
1/2 c. flour
1 c. milk
1 1/2 c. monterey jack cheese
1/2 c. sour cream

Put beans, onion, garlic, broth, tabasco, seasonings, chilies, and chicken in a pan on the stove. Heat through. Take 1/2 c. broth and stir in 1/2 c. flour and make a paste. Stir paste into pot. Add remaining ingredients and heat through.

*Start with about 1/2 the milk and add more if needed. Depending upon the thickness you want.
