GREAT NORTHERN BEAN CHILI

Seven ingredients makes this mild version of a Southwestern chicken chili. I like to add a dash of hot sauce and some sour cream on top, and serve it with tortilla chips. It's a great alternative to traditional chili. -mamesmom, Taste of Home Online Community

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or to taste
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into cubes
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 small onion, diced
2 jalapeno peppers, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 quart chicken broth

½ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 (15.5 ounce) cans white (cannellini) beans, drained and rinsed

Steps:

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Saute chicken, green bell pepper, and onion in hot oil until the chicken is browned and the vegetables are tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
