Time 5h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 lb chicken breast fillet (4 fillets)
1 tablespoon olive oil
10 cups water
2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 potato, peeled & chopped
1 small onion, diced
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 carrot, sliced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 cup canned diced tomato
1 (15 ounce) can red kidney beans, plus liquid
1/4 cup diced canned pimiento
1 jalapeno, diced
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 dash basil
1 dash oregano
sour cream
1 pinch chopped Italian parsley
grated cheddar cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Sauté the chicken breasts in the olive oil in a large pot over medium/high heat.
  • Cook the chicken on both side until done-- about 7-10 minutes per side.
  • Cool the chicken until it can be handled.
  • Do not rinse the pot.
  • Shred the chicken by hand into bite-sizes pieces and place the pieces back into the pot.
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the pot and turn heat to high.
  • Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 4-5 hours.
  • Stir mixture often so that many of the chicken pieces shred into much smaller bits.
  • Chili should reduce substantially to thicken and darken (less orange, more brown) when done.
  • Combine some chopped Italian parsley with sour cream and serve it on the side for topping the chili, if desired.

1 tablespoon olive oil
7 cups water
2 cans chicken stock
1 8oz can tomato sauce
1 potato, peeled & chopped
1 small onion, diced
1 can yellow corn
1/2 carrot, sliced
1 celery stalk, diced
1 14oz can diced tomatoes
1 15-ounce can red kidney beans, plus liquid
1/4 cup diced canned pimento
1 jalapeno, diced
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
dash cayenne pepper
dash basil
dash oregano

Steps:

  • 1. Saute the chicken breasts in the olive oil in a large pot over medium/high heat. Cook the chicken on both side until done -- about 7-10 minutes per side. Cool the chicken until it can be handled. Do not rinse the pot. 2. Shred the chicken by hand into bite-sizes pieces and place the pieces back into the pot. 3. Add the remaining ingredients to the pot and turn heat to high. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 4-5 hours. Stir mixture often so that many of the chicken pieces shred into much smaller bits. Chili should reduce substantially to thicken and darken (less orange, more brown) when done.

Tips:

  • For a smokier flavor, use chipotle peppers in adobo sauce instead of chili powder.
  • If you like your chili soup spicy, add a teaspoon or two of cayenne pepper.
  • For a thicker soup, use less chicken broth or blend some of the soup in a blender before adding the chicken and beans.
  • Garnish your soup with sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado, and cilantro before serving.
  • Leftover chili soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
