I tried a popular recipe for white chicken chili but it was missing some zing. So here's my adjusted recipe. The OG is here https://www.cookingclassy.com/white-chicken-chili/
- 1 yellow onion , diced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic , finely minced
- 4 (14.5 oz) cans low-sodium chicken broth (I used 2 quart sized instant pot homemade broth I'd use 1 1/2 next time)
- 1 (7 oz) can diced green chilies (mild), undrained
- 1 (4oz) can diced green chilies (mild), undrained
- 1 14.5 can fired roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1 Tbsp Tajin or other chili lime Mexican seasoning
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper , to taste
- 1 packet Italian dressing (dry)
- 1/2 pkg cream cheese (4 oz), light works too
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup-1 cup monterey jack cheese
- 1 can corn (or use frozen 1 1/2 cups), drained
- 2 (15 oz) cans cannellini beans (any white bean)
- 3 cups shredded cooked rotisserie or left-over chicken
- 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving
- shredded cabbage
- Tortilla chips or strips, monterrey jack cheese, sliced avocado for serving (optional)
- 1 can undrained
- 1 can drained and mixed almost smooth with stick blender and 1/4 cup broth
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute 4 minutes minutes. Add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer.
- Bloom spices and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add chicken broth and green chilis. Bring mixture just to a boil then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 minutes.
- Drain 1 can beans and transfer to a food processor along with 1/4 cup broth from soup, puree until nearly smooth.
- Add cream cheese to soup (over low heat and just spoonfuls to break it up faster) along with corn, whole beans and pureed beans and stir well. Simmer 5 - 10 minutes longer.
- Stir in chicken, fresh lime juice and cilantro. Serve with Monterrey Jack cheese, more cilantro, avocado slices, lime slices and shredded cabbage and tortilla chips if desired.
