GROUND CHICKEN CHILI



Ground Chicken Chili image

After trying other white chili recipes, I created my own that full with ground chicken, beans, peppers, and savory herbs, hot-spicy yet sweet, and creamy for a change from tomato-based chili. My partner frequently takes my cooking to work for colleagues to sample, and they said this is not only some great chili with kick, it's one of the best non-standard chilis they've eaten! Thick and robust, great for dinner on a cool evening. Up the ante with tortilla chips or corn muffins as a side--with kernel corn and diced chiles added to the muffin batter.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground chicken: Look for ground chicken that is fresh and free of any additives or preservatives. You can also grind your own chicken breasts or thighs at home for a more flavorful chili.
  • Brown the ground chicken well: Browning the ground chicken before adding it to the chili will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming dry. Make sure to cook the chicken over medium-high heat and stir it frequently so that it browns evenly.
  • Use a variety of spices: Chili is a great dish to experiment with different spices. Some popular spices for chili include chili powder, cumin, oregano, paprika, and cayenne pepper. You can also add other spices to taste, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your chili. Choose a broth that is flavorful and has a low sodium content. You can use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth, depending on your preference.
  • Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes: Simmering the chili for a long period of time will help to develop the flavors and thicken the sauce. If you are short on time, you can simmer the chili for a shorter period of time, but the flavor will not be as good.

Conclusion:

Ground chicken chili is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its combination of flavorful ground chicken, spices, and beans, this chili is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
