White Chicken Chili

 Here is a great easy recipe that taste fantastic. It is very hearty and simple to make. A good one dish dinner that will help keep you warmed up and filled up on these winter days. There are many variations of this dish, I like this one best. The parsley and lime gives it a nice twist. Why not try some tonight? 


 1  medium onion, chopped 

1  jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped  (or you can use a 4oz. can of chopped green chilies)

1  tablespoon canola oil 

2  garlic cloves, minced 

4  cups chicken broth  

2  cans (15-1/2 ounces each) great northern beans, rinsed and drained 

2  tablespoons minced fresh parsley 

1  tablespoon lime juice 

1  to 1-1/4 teaspoons ground cumin 

2  tablespoons cornstarch 

1/4  cup cold water 

2  cups cubed cooked chicken

In a large saucepan, cook onion and jalapeno in oil until tender. 

If using green chilies add them later with the other ingredients.

Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.

Stir in the broth, beans, parsley, lime juice and cumin; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
