I got this recipe from my friend Shelly. I made a few modifications for my family and now it's one of our favorite dinners. It is very low point friendly (if you're on Weight Watchers) and high in taste. We have enjoyed it year round.

Categories     Stew

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (10 ounce) can canned chicken (white meat)

1 tablespoon chili powder

  • Saute chicken, onion, garlic, and green pepper in cooking spray.
  • Add remaining ingredients. Heat on stove until warm throughout.
  • (You can also cook this in the crockpot on low all day or high for a few hours--no need to saute veggies for the crockpot version.)
  • If desired, top stew with shredded cheese, sour cream, avocados, and crushed up tortilla chips. My kids love to eat this as a dip for their chips. I serve it with the baked version of tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For this stew, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work well. If using chicken breasts, slice them into bite-sized pieces before cooking.
  • Brown the chicken: Browning the chicken before adding it to the stew gives it a nice caramelized flavor. Be sure to brown the chicken in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan and steam instead of browning.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for a variety of vegetables, including bell peppers, onions, carrots, and celery. Feel free to add other vegetables that you like, such as zucchini, corn, or green beans.
  • Use a good quality chili powder: The chili powder is one of the key ingredients in this stew, so be sure to use a good quality one. Look for a chili powder that has a deep red color and a smoky, slightly spicy flavor.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes: Simmering the stew for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the stew, the more flavorful it will be.

Conclusion:

This chili chicken stew is a hearty, flavorful, and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold night. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve the stew with rice, mashed potatoes, or your favorite bread. Enjoy!
