This recipe was passed down from a friend, and now it is one of our favorites! It's great to make whenever there is left over chicken or turkey around! We pray for colder weather in California just so we can make this soup! You can substitute additional diced tomatoes for the tomatillos. If you would like the soup to be spicier, you can add some red chili flakes or salsa. Serve with these toppings for people to choose from: limes, cilantro, cheese, avocado, sour cream, and tortilla chips.

SHARSH'S WHITE BEAN CHICKEN CHILI

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 to 9 poblano peppers, roasted, peeled and chopped
3 medium onions
1 yellow bell pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
12 to 15 tomatillos, washed, paper-like skins removed
1 quart chicken broth
Jalapeno or serrano peppers if needed for spice (poblanos will vary in their heat)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 (15-ounce) cans white beans rinsed, drained
1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
Lime slices, for garnish

Steps:

  • Roast the poblano peppers on a grill or under the broiler turning often, until blackened and soft. Place them in a bowl covered with plastic wrap to cool (this will make peeling them easier). When cool; peel, seed and dice the poblano peppers.
  • Dice the onions and bell pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or kettle. Add onions, yellow bell pepper, poblano peppers, pressed garlic, chili powder and ancho chili powder. Saute this mixture until the onions are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the diced chicken breast and continue to cook until chicken is fully cooked, 10 to 15 minutes depending on the size of your dice.
  • Wash and stem the tomatillos then run them through a food processor until they are pulverized, but still have some texture (you could dice them by hand, but this will leave the tomatillo skins floating around in your finished product). Add the tomatillos and the broth to the chicken and pepper mixture. After this is heated through (about 10 minutes), check the spiciness and, if necessary, add either a finely chopped jalapeno or serrano pepper for more heat (we're looking for a slow, sustained burn, not fire). Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Simmer for 30 minutes to meld the flavors. Add the beans and cilantro, cook a final 5 minutes to heat thoroughly and serve with a garnish of cilantro and lime slice.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound tomatillos, husked and rinsed
2 plum tomatoes
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 poblano chile peppers
2 jalapeno peppers
3 pounds boneless pork shoulder, trimmed of excess fat, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons cornmeal
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Sliced scallions, pickled jalapenos and/or grated cheddar cheese, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Toss the tomatillos and tomatoes with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil on a baking sheet and push to one side. Put the poblanos and jalapenos on the other side of the baking sheet. Broil, turning the vegetables occasionally, until charred, about 10 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos and tomatoes to a cutting board and let cool. Put the peppers in a bowl and cover with a plate; set aside 10 minutes. Pull the skins off the tomatoes, then core and chop them along with the tomatillos. Peel, seed and chop the peppers; set all the vegetables aside.
  • Toss the pork with the chili powder, cumin, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Working in batches, add the pork to the pot and cook, turning, until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, the onion and garlic to the pot; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the cornmeal and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Add the broiled tomatillos, tomatoes and peppers. Stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the broth and pork and any collected juices, then bring to a simmer.
  • Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Uncover, season generously with salt and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces slightly, about 30 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand about 10 minutes; spoon off any excess fat from the top. Season the chili with salt and pepper and serve with toppings.

WHITE BEAN CHILI WITH TOMATILLOS image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Bean     Vegetarian     Dinner     Lunch     Healthy

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 cups vegetable broth
2 chopped onions
2 cups dried navy beans, soaked overnight
1 cup dried Great Northern beans, soaked overnight
1 cup cooked of canned garbanzo beans
1/2 cup channed diced green chiles
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 cups canned tomatillos, crushed
2 jalapeno chiles, seeded and minced
1 tablespoon Tabasco
2 teaspoons turmeric
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (8 ounces)

Steps:

  • In a large pot, combine all ingredients except cheese. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Puree some of the chili to thicken, and stir in the cheese. Serve hot with your choice of toppings (ex: chopped red onion, pepper jack cheese, sour cream).

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a variety of beans: This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all good choices.
  • Don't be afraid to use spices: Chili is a great dish to experiment with different spices. Cumin, chili powder, and paprika are all classic choices, but you can also try adding chipotle peppers, smoked paprika, or even a pinch of cinnamon.
  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible: This will give your chili the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatillos, you can use canned tomatillos, but be sure to rinse them well before using.
  • Let the chili simmer for a while: This will help the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the chili, the better it will taste.
